As a point of comparison, on Vincent's machine, I'm able to get up to 1.9MB/s download from both free.fr and bazaar.launchpad.net. As such it doesn't really seem like a raw-bandwidth issue.
So while I think bzr probably *could* do something better, we really need to understand why *wget* isn't saturating the bandwidth first. I did take a Wireshark dump while using wget from bazaar.launchpad.net.
I do see a fair amount of out-of-order and retransmission sections. Though my wireshark-fu is weak. I have a larger dump (15MB), but I figured just sending the first 3MB would probably be enough to see what is going on.
