Especially for long distance work, make sure that all the different
buffers up and down the line are big enough to hold all the in-flight
data.  If your FTP is working well, then someone has adjusted the TCP
Window size, but there are buffers in the TSM server and TSM client
whose capacity needs to be large enough, too.
