Yes.

Yes.

Both fairly good.

Some extracts from my /usr/spool/uucp/.Old/xferstats:

This is on a CONNECT FAST/UUCP.

I get around 1250 cps on a standard CONNECT FAST using rzsz (ZModem).


>SCO Open Desktop?

Don't know.


>The FAS driver on these same systems?

From a brief look at the sources, it appears to.
