Sure you weren't copying something from over the local network?
Because 125MB/s just happens to be 1 gigabit/second - same as gigabit ethernet. In reality though due to protocol overheads etc you are very rarely going to get a transfer rate that high.

And yeah you're not going to get gigabit internet speeds in Bendigo or Ballarat or any place like that.

Unless you mean 124 megabits per second rather than megabytes, which is still pretty damn unlikely outside of a CBD - that's 15 megabytes a second.


Were you downloading a large file? I suspect that what might have happened is that whatever you were downloading was getting cached by a proxy, and when it finished downloading it sent the entire file in one big go to the browser, which then reported that it got all this data in one second. The browser would have sat there saying its downloading super slow at like 1% than all of a sudden the whole file is complete.
