What version of netback are you running? The one from the 3.0.3 release is
known to have a bug which would cause high-bandwidth transfers to stall.

The offending function is netback.c:tx_add_credit(). You should be able to
take the version from xen-unstable and copy it into whatever version of
netback.c you are using.
