my numbers are off by a factor of 8.  Yes there can be some tuning and I 
intend to do that with my systems but my mistake was in that I think in 
BYTES not bits FTP uses BYTES and so does all the numbers I tend to 
think in.  Which means that 4 Megbits = 500 Kilobytes whitch means that 
my test xfer could have worked with 10 Streams or more not 2.
