FWIW it felt and sounded like a duplexing issue because it was a 
duplexing issue.  I'm not sure how i missed it, because i went over both 
interfaces, but i think i was focused on the DMZ side too much and not 
the LAN side.

Status->Interfaces (as Chris suggested) showed it right away.

Getting full 100Mbps through it now (10MB file in <1 second), and it's a 
566MHz celeron with four ethernet cards in it. :)

Thanks everybody!

m0n0 rocks!!!!!
