  15.    I would like to use PEP for slip ... [but] ... it's ssslllooowww.
  16.    If I connect using 2400 baud, it speeds up visibly.  What am I

  19. Your SLIP probably doesn't do RFC-1144 "VJ" TCP header compression,
  20. which would turn it into something that's commonly called CSLIP.  VJ
  21. improves SLIP or PPP performance on any slow link, and it's
  22. particularly helpful with PEP.  Without VJ, the minimal telnet packet
  23. won't fit into a PEP micro-packet, so the whole line must be turned
  24. around between your type-in and the character echo.
