We have implemented a new multithreaded transfer protocol that greatly accelerates transmit time out of Amazon S3’s storage location.  On average we are seeing a 4-5X speed improvement  with peak up to 10x faster than our legacy protocol.  If your source media is stored on Amazon S3, you can activate multithread download by adding ?multithread parameter to your source URLs.  If you are utilizing the ?nocopy function already then you can use both together by appending ?nocopy&multithread to your source URLs.
