These numbers signify a healthy wired 1Gig connection to me.

Interesting.  Is that Mbps or MBps?  The latter would make more sense.  
I don't know exactly what protocol filetransfer uses to transfer the 
file.  I'm assuming http/https and I don't know how efficient that is.  
Since that server is on campus, I would expect the throughput to be very 
good, provided the protocol was able to fill the pipe up fast enough.
