Honestly, this depends on what OS you are using.  Anything prior to Win7 you are likely to suffer from the TCP stack.  
Add in anything weird like ICMP filtering, load balancers or something else that eats the packets you are going to see 
varying results.

Hello folks,

Does anyone know what's the average speed for windows file transferring
(SMB2) between Hong Kong and Johannesburg?
Any guide on how to calculate/estimate this?

Thanks.
