You should be able to get faster transfer rates than that.  I just
checked my last full backup and it was running at 8.2MB/s on a 100Mb/s
network (296GB full backup in 613 minutes).

I can't help with solving your problem, but I can verify that BackupPC
with rsync is definitely capable of backup speeds higher than what you
are seeing.

BTW - I am connecting to an rsync server with no encryption.  If you
connect through SSH, that may affect your transfer rates.
