You have been mis-informed. I get transfer rates of 1,600+ cps
on a regular basis with kermit with my 14.4 Kbps modem, and it
only required some minor tweaking on my part. Look through the
help files for the section on control prefixes, and set your
packet sizes to be at least 1000. These transfer rates are at
least as good as the rates zmodem will get you.
