Slow net booting

[Hippo.EuroPARC at xerox.com]

Not much of a problem, more curiosity ..

I've just finished installing a bunch of 4/110's and a 4/280.  None of the
machines have tape drives, so I was runningthem diskless during the
install process.  The 4/110's sucked over vmunix from the tftpboot host in
about 15 seconds, but the 4/280 took about 30 minutes.

Has anyone seen this behaviour before?
