there is also the folklore of the contractor hired to do the original
tcp/ip implementation in vtam. the initial try had tcp benchmark
w/thruput much higher than lu6.2. it was explained to him that
everybody KNEW that a CORRECT tcp/ip implementation would have thruput
much lower than lu6.2 ... and they were only willing to accept a
CORRECT protocol implementation. the contract was handled by a group
that was sometimes called cpd-west located in palo alto sq (corner of
el camino and page mill).
