Probably by adjusting some default-misconfigured networking parameters like
Default MTU and MSS, TCP Window, activating PMTUD, SACK, ... but I'd rather
choose a tool which is competent on doing so (like TCP Optimizer from
speedguide.net), or do it manually.

Indeed, a well-tuned connection cannot be speeded up any further.
