Much of that can be attributed to the nature of the pipes to the internet. My home internet pipe is geared towards downloads. I get 50mb/s down and around 6mb/s up, supposedly, but I don't think it actually maintains that speed over a long run. The pipe at the university is much more balanced as far as up/down speeds and the upload pipe is much more consistent, even though the peak measured speed is similar.
In other words, YMMV.

Very interesting, Mark. That's an incredibly wide variance. My Speedtest shows over 60mb/s down and 6.9 up, both at home and work. I think that Amazon is choking the uploads somehow, but they won't answer questions about how to improve upload speed.
