  We have been considering these.  Would you please elaborate ?  In particular,
  filtering ability, how close to true protocol independence, and performance.
  Regarding performance, if tcp/ip or Decnet being used, how many sessions can
  be handled on a 9600-baud connection before echoplex shows insufferable 
  "sponginess" ?

   many thanks, greg pavlov, fstrf, amherst, ny
