Well, that's not a bitty box. Wish I bought something like that instead
of my BananaPi. Anyway, someone more knowledgeable on Plan 9 than me is
needed. I can only speculate that the OS and hardware fight. I have
something similar happening on my desktop with modern hardware running
old software. I run GNU/Linux on it. For some reason I can't figure out,
transfers start off normal but then degrade to 10 Mbps or less after a
few GiB are transferred. If I try it with CentOS 7, it runs fine. But
when I use my own homegrown distro it's pathologic. Kernel version
3.16.85, vanilla.
