From what I can see grandpa, we share a common path from m1fre-ae1-v1.sunet.se [130.242.83.45], so I would suggest that it is less likely that a problem lies between that point and the server (as I'm not being throttled/bottlenecked).
Your traffic is carried across the Atlantic by Tinet, apparently to Germany, and up to Stockholm, whereas mine is carried across by Telia to Switzerland. We both then take different paths across the Nordic research network and Swedish Universities network (you have twice the number of hops) until we are inside the university. So there are several places where the 'throttling' can be occuring: somewhere between California and the interconnect between Tinet and Nordnet, between Nordnet and m1fre-ae1-v1.sunet.se, and what I would consider less likely, between m1fre-ae1-v1.sunet.se and the server. Your route map should hopefully help the networking people kasson referred to investigate any throttling or bottlenecks, but if the problem is between California and Germany, then there isn't much they can do.
It would be interesting if any other comcast users are having upload issues to the server...
Napoleon, thanks for that, I can't see any common points between your trace route and Grandpa's (you're being carried by Level3 instead of Tinet and Elisa instead of the research network).
Add: One extra thing that comes to mind is whether there is a difference between the Windows v7 client (your client) and the windows v6 client (my client)... If you're able to Grandpa, it would be interesting to see whether you have the same throttling to the Sweden server when running the v6 client. Does anyone know whether the clients handle the file transfer differently?
