2) PPP performance is down. Yup, you read me right. Connected at
28.8, I'm now getting about 9 KB/sec (vs. 10) for a perfectly
compressible file, and 2.4 (vs. 3.0) for a .gz file. This is to a
Solaris 2.3 host. Linus, you tired of us screwing with your head or
something?

BTW, performance to tsx-11.mit.edu was much better (3.2 KB/sec), even
though that's going over a number of hops that the Solaris machine
doesn't have to deal with.
