Well that's more than adequate.  I was thinking you were running a low
end Pentium or a Soekris 4501 (486 133 MHz) or something.

You should be able to push *way* more than 5-6 Mb through that.  I can
get more than 15 Mb down, 1.5 Mb up, 3000+ packets per second of
BitTorrent traffic on a 800 MHz VIA, which isn't nearly as fast as a
P3 900, and at that it only runs at around 20-25% CPU.

Any errors showing on any interfaces under Status > Interfaces?
Anything out of the ordinary in the system logs?  I think you can go
to exec.php and run 'top' (don't have easy access to a m0n0wall as I'm
away from home at the moment), what does that show while you have the
CPU pegged?
