we (nstar) have picked up several sites that were previously (or still are)
connected with uunet.   throughput with uunet runs around 900-1000 cps
(so we've been told) while throughput here runs as high as 1400 cps
(these are all PEP speeds)..

btw - we just installed another box - and can feed *more* sites!
