>Description:
You should under all circumstances make the serial buffers in
ser.c bigger as the default settings produce nothing but silo
overflows with 38400 DTE rate.
I also wonder why LEV6_DEFER (lcore.s) is not set per default?
My modem line produced >5% packet loss with the default
settings, resulting in about 60% of the IP throughput I have
now, with the changed parameters.
