I'll try, I don't know if anything's changed... but in the old builders I had the impression that start pretty fast.
How long does it take for you to start rendering too? In a large scene
Large scenes used to take 1-2 min to load. So by the time our slaves kicked in our master was almost done rendering. We render animation in 1080p not a single image so having slow slaves was a big problem.
So we solved it by getting 10 Gigabit switch and adding 10 gigabit network cards to all PC. All Ethernet cables were upgraded to CAT7. Also we don't run the master through the router first.
Our master and slaves are connected to the switch. The router is also connected to the switch supplying all PCs with the internet. Now slaves start rendering almost immediately.
I heard even one low quality cable or Ethernet jack can create a big bottle neck.
