I don't see why that should be the case.  ASCII should be the fastest
protocol there is.  I've seen it documented as being the fastest as well. 
So long as you steer clear of character pacing and delays between lines
anyway.

And because Telix is cleaner to use.  Some of this OS/2 software leaves a

Dave Hatch?  What does he do?
