I am useing ppp-2.2.0f and was useing ppp-2.2.0e and with kernels higher than
1.3.73 i experienced dramatic slowdowns... We have 300 dialin users on this
system , and when i was useing the above mentioned kernels/ppp-versions i
recieved _many_ complaints about speed. I have since gone back to 1.3.71
and ppp-2.2.0f and no more problems.
