G'day Dieter,

Replying to a message of Dieter Mirbach to Jeff Green on 10-10-96:

 DM>>  What's your response times and throughput been during these
 DM>>  school holidays ??

 JG>> Not too bad actually. I was expecting things to really clog up, but
 JG>> most of the time the response has been about normal.

 DM>  Surprisingly, it's been better than most days. I had a record
 DM>  transfer rate from the USA, 7.5Kbps (ISDN - in case you're
 DM>  wondering),

ISDN!! Bastard!

 DM> downloading a 2.5meg file. (Adobe Acrobat Reader for
 DM>  OS/2) Usually its around the 1k-2k mark, occasionally sub 1k.

I got to 97% of that before the connection died :-(

 DM>  Hope it stays this way.

My connects in the last couple of days have been very good for a 28.8k
connect. I also hope it stays this way.

Regards...Jeff (jeff{at}matra.com.au)
