Other stuff over the same connection is near the full speed of a second/meg or so. Hitting the server from another box on the local network is fast. Any ideas on what is happening, or parameters I should check in the Apache, the OS, or the router?

If you're using mod_jk, up the number of workers.

The router is forwarding inbound port 80 to the FreeBSD machine running Apache.

What's your upstream speed? If it's 128k, then it's going to be slow.
