    We are considering porting TCP/IP to a CMC FDDI card that will sit
in a single board VME box so that we can put a customized image storage
and retrieval system on an FDDI network.  Since many implementations of
TCP/IP already exist, I am interested in obtaining source for these
protocols, where the source represents an implementation known to be very
good for large volume throughput.  I am under the impression that most
implementations are in C.  Please correct me if I am wrong.

    I'd also like some input from implementors as to what bottle necks
have been found that have down graded performance in various TCP/IP
implementations.  Since I read the tcp-ip mailing list from a bulletin
board where archiving is under the controll of b-board administrators,
I would like all responses sent to:

                         bjp@mbunix.mitre.org

Thanks for your time.  Anything you send will be a big help.

                                     Sincerely
