I think you're taliking about packet size. On fast connections you can increase speed (slightly) by increasing the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) size. Larger MTU = Less packet Fragmentation = more efficient data transfer/speed.
I think this was mainly an issue on Win98/Me?. The MTU values on NT/2000/XP are already optimized for LAN/Broadband. In Linux, you can adjust the packet size for services (NFS/SAMBA...) to increase performance.
