Why is my Upstream bandwidth limited?

hi all,

I have a little problem with my server. I was trying to post a few binaries to usenet, using Newspost (http://newspost.unixcab.org). I noticed that while posting binaries, it seemed to be limited at 500KB/s. I contacted my newsservice provider and they said they do not limit posting speeds, so the problem is on my end somewhere.

I am on a 100mbps server running fedora 3.
I am using apf firewall and in iptables I have egress filtering disabled.

what could possibly be limiting my posting speed?
