Current fidonet over the internet, is so fast, that most sessions only
exchange a single pkt file, with only a single or a few messages, typically
a few hundreds or thousands bytes. It makes no sense starting up a
compression program, that writes them to an compressed
"intermediate" file on disk before transmission, when most of
those pkt files fit into a single tcp/ip frame. Or when binkp can compress
them on the fly which doesn't require extra disk writes and reads for the
compressed data.

Bye, Wilfred.
