There is a well-known throughput bottleneck with BRMS. (600Kb/s is
actually quite a respectable figure for BRMS.) This has existed for
quite some time and appears to be unfixable.

You have a couple of options. There are third-party packages that will
allow AS/400s to communicate with TSM. You can also choose to ftp AS/400
files to a non-AS/400 platform such as an RS/6000, and backing those up.
