I can also tell YOU from experience you are full of shit. My 7 Gbit EG BestOf09 transfer at worst case 40MB/s down, 20MB/s up, while I've seen 90MB/s+ on direct SCP/FTP/WGET as per next lines:
XXXXX:/home# scp XXXXXXXX@XXXXXXXX:/home/XXXXXXXXXXX/...V.x264-CTU.mkv ./
XXXXXXXXX@XXXXXXXXXx's password:
Caprica.S01E07.720p.HDTV.x264-CTU.mkv 100% 1118MB 46.6MB/s 00:24
I can also tell from Joshua @ Feral's experience it is also true and he has over 100 Gbit EG BestOf's... Sure, when you stick 10 people on a Gbit box, it will possibly transfer slower than 4 people on a 100Mbit, but that is purely to do with load and nothing to do with the box.
As to your link, I don't see any OVH officials commenting on it, so seems silly to trust the comments of the technically inept.
