But arent some protocols more efficient than others? I havent noticed any
degradation on our office LAN with Samba since its 100Mbps, but I tried
transfering files with Samba at home (10Mbps) and it was terrible.

It was about 10 times slower than scp or NFS. The configuration is pretty
standard, so it shouldnt be that.
