Wi-Fi Transmission Overhead?

I’m currently copying a few gigabytes of files from my main workstation
onto my laptop via wi-fi. Looking at dstat, on the workstation, it is
reading about 4MB/s from the disk, but the network data transmission
rate is a bit over twice that, more like 9MB/s. At the laptop end, it
is receiving about 4MB/s over the network, which more closely matches
the data being read from disk on the transmit side, but not the
transmission rate.

Has anybody else seen something similar?
