  17. I am trying to speed up kermit. I changed the packet length and that improved
  18. things greatly.  I don't have a benchmark though.  I was on a 9600baud line,
  19. and a packet length of 1000, I was getting a speed of around 620cps (15kB file
  20. in 28 seconds).  Is that fast?
  21.  
  22. What is the interaction between kermit and inline compression, the modem was
  23. supposedly running at 38kbaud with compression.
  24.  
  25. thanks
