Hi,
    Transfering uncompressed text I get about 2800cps over my 14.4
modem.  Transferring zipped files I get about 1200cps. This seems to be
roughly the same for window sizes above 1000. At one point I thought
that there was some optimum window size and number. Now I'm not
sure. Why wouldn't 31 windows of 9024 bytes each be way over kill but
optimum in all cases? Is there a formula or a procedure for
determining this other than trial and error? Also is there a way to
take better advantage of V42 in my modem. Better in the sense of
increasing throughput of correct data. I'm basicly content but just
thought I'd ask. My computer is a 486-33 and I dial into a rather
speedy Sun4m architecture machine.

thanks
