So maybe the limit is a good thing. Although I'd be happier with a

Is likely your ISP's newserver limits bandwidth by the connection.
Try dropping the connection count to 2 in pan as a quick and simple
bandwidth limit experiment. I've seen 50k bytes/sec to 120k bytes/sec
per connection with some news servers.
Both FreeBSD and MacOS X include ipfw as a firewall option. Within
ipfw one may use dummynet for traffic shaping, including bandwidth
limiting.
