Maybe, maybe not. We don't know enough about the OP's situation to make
even an educated guess here. Don't forget that the transfer rate is
limited by the slowest connection, i.e. if the remote side doesn't have
a T3 as well or there's a bottleneck somewhere en-route the duration may
be increased significantly. You'd also need connection interrupts into
consideration.
