Folks,

  I have a situation where a remote site is PXE booting over our WAN with a latency of about 160ms.
I can fetch the initrd (~200MB) while inside an installed OS at about 400Mbps. During the iPXE fetch
of the same file from the same source I see ~768Kbps and lots of retransmits. Any help in debugging this
issue would be greatly appreciated.

Version information: 

XL710 Firmware 5.0.4
iPXE Version: GIT/827dd1bfee67daa683935ce65316f7e0f057fe1c
