How to transfer data FAST?

That assumes a fair amount of software working on the 11 side.

Has anyone written something dumb that could squirt a block-level
mass storage image (dealing with bad blocks..) through a DELUA or
DELQA to a destination at the raw packet level?

I've been thinking of doing a ethernet nub debugger for Qbus 
machines that would work that way (which I why I just picked
up a DELQA..)
