I am having network "slowdown" problem with two Macintosh G4s (OS 9.0.4) and a FreeBSD (4.1 release) server with Netatalk-1.4b2+asun2.1.3. For the first month or so the transfer speed between the Macs and FreeBSD were good. Now they are horribly slow. About 45min - 1hour to copy a 60M directory either way. However, an older mac (PM7500 OS 8.6) is having no slowdown connecting to the same server.

A new system was installed on one of the G4s and the speed problem seemed to disappear. This is a possible solution but without knowing what the cause of the slowdown was I am afraid that it may arise again.

Any ideas or insight would be greatly appreciated.
