Message-ID: <13825@cs.tcd.ie> Date: 10 Sep 88 15:33:39 GMT Organization: Computer Science Department, Trinity College Dublin Lines: 16 I am using Mac Kermit 0.9 (40) to talk to a VAX and I find that the effective speed of file transfer is far too slow. For example, on a 9600 baud line, downloading a file to the VAX works at about 1700 effective baud, whereas uploading works at approx. 4000 baud. This problem doesn't occur when using Kermit between a PC and the same VAX, so I assume the problem lies with Mac Kermit, not the VAX. Anybody got any ideas what I can do to improve things? Thanks, Frank O'Dwyer, Dept. Of Computer Science, Trinity College Dublin.
