When I copy from laptop to desktop (both quite fast machines with fast
disks) I get something quite a bit over 100MB/s on wired Gigabit
connections.  So the overhead isn't that great given that the
theoretical maximum would be 1000/8 which is 125MB/s.  So on a 300Mb/s
wireless link between the same two machines one would, sort of, expect
something a bit more than 30MB/s whereas in reality one gets about
half of that.
