I'd run tcpdump on the connection and examine the difference between the slow transfers and the fast transfers.
I would guess you either have packet loss, or (more likely given you think the network is OK) a subtle MTU issue between the two paths, possibly hidden by ICMP fragmentation needed packets normally, but filtered here, tickling the bug.
