You should be able to do better. These are results I got downloading
compressed files with SCO Unix Professional-YAM over the Internet using
a 14.4 PPP connection.

K = Kermit
R = ymodem-g
C = CompuServe 32 bit B+
YMODEM-g is the fastest on CompuServe, but it won't be reliable
over internet until CompuServe gets the flow control right.
ZMODEM is not generally available on CompuServe, so the B+ must be used.
The Kermit timings do not include the annoying pause at startup,
so the real Kermit time is a bit worse than shown. These
figures indicate CompuServe's Kermit is not very spiffy. This
is the situation on most services. Unlike ZMODEM, freely usable
Kermit code is not very efficient.
