can download at relatively high speeds (2+ MB/s) from a different web server,
that's also running Apache and Red Hat (though different versions).

The TCP settingss (as shown via 'sysctl -a | grep tcp') are the same between
the two servers.

It's just with this particular web server that some workstations are fast and
some are slow.

Just a quick update on the two web servers: going through 'sysctl -a' output
for both machines and doing a diff(1), there are no notable differences
between the two besides things like hostname and kernel versions. The only
differences under net.* is that one machine has an extra interface plumbed.
