On my system - A1200 with 060, OS 3.5, V3 / Yam and a Twister high speed
serial interface and a prevailing wind I can get the following :-
Text ( e-mails in Yam ) 4500 to 6000 cps.
HTML - on a large page with a good server this can hit 11000 cps but this is
because of the compression involved.
Graphics - no reading but speeds suggest around about 5000 on a large file.
The Twister device makes all the difference and is well worth �25.
Oh, the modem is a 56k.
