   Are you communicating with UUNET? Then maybe it's because UUNET's computers  
are terribly bogged down and can't pump 1000+ characters to their modems. :-(   
Did you notice a jump of about 100 cps when they upgraded? Now it seems they  
have added even more nodes and are even more bogged down. :-( x 3

ps. I don't know about the other providers. Larry says he can keep a high  
throughput 'cos he limits the number of nodes he serves. I don't know about  
PSI. 

pps. Standard disclaimers. I have a UUNET link via a T2500. That's about it.
