By that metric, I've never experienced a non-local network connection 
that didn't suck. Not just on dialup, but on attbi, on many corporate 
networks at various contract jobs where both offices were on T1 lines
in separate cities.

Granted, I haven't seen this suckage when the two machines were on 
the same LAN; a 100bTX link is sufficiently fast for this.
