I've seen slow traffic due to the firewall trying to do many things
like checking for viruses, packet anomalies, etc...
Maybe there's some checks that works better or worst depending if the
ftp session is passive or not.

I'm having an issue when ftp'ing (default port mode) large file
(50megs) to a remote server sitting behind FWSM. The transfer
gets real slow and at times just timeouts.

Any thoughts will be great.

Any sort of packet shaper/QoS device between the endpoints?
