Mine's overclocked, and I'm seeing similar speeds.  I believe the
small amount of memory, and 266 Mhz CPU are the bottlenecks here.
That being said, the Debian ARM developers have done an amazing job
with kernel memory management, etc.  Today I had two large rsync
backups running while simultaneously streaming a video to the living
room Xbox (XBMC) and it didn't skip a beat.
