Background: I (?) coded the download indicator so that it updates the screen 5 times per second (falling back to 1/sec if there is only a second-granularity clock). As the typescript at http://www.page-crafters.com/lynx/ shows, each update involves around 40 bytes sent to a TTY. This leads to circa 2K bauds of bandwidth required (in the Bytes/second mode, let me note that it should be much less in the KB/second mode). Since the user reports his 20K+ baud bandwidth is taken, this means that the code is called more often than 5 times per second. A faulty code in the get-the-time logic? A simple sanity check: as typescript indicates, the update happens when the download gets circa 4K larger. Is the download happening at 16KB/sec, or larger? If it is 16K/sec, then *it is* no more 2K baud taken. If it is larger, there is a fault in the get-the-time code.
