True.  But again I say, it all depends on what you are measuring.
If you want to compute the *TRUE* line utilization of an async
line, then you need to multiply by 8, especially if you are
comparing this value against a synchronous line.

I am seeing the same 400-600 cps on a direct 9600 baud link between
a uVax and something else.  Can somebody out there tell me where the
bottleneck on the VAX is?

P.S. Explain how I can be getting 120 CPS on a 1200 baud line.
