Is it just me or is ftp-master really slow?

[Garrett Wollman]

I recently added some more disk space to ftp5.freebsd.org (aka
xyz.csail.mit.edu), and removed a bunch of exclusions from its refuse
file.  After two weeks, it still has yet to make it through
packages/amd64.  netstat shows

tcp4       0     36 xyz.55695              ftp-master.freeb.cvsup ESTABLISHED

...which suggests that there's no connectivity problem.  ktrace shows
that we're reading from the network at about 10 kbyte/s, which seems
extremely slow.  What's going on?
