I know when i did some testing many moons ago with an IBMer, we saw pacing 
responds , like SNA pacing and vpacing going back forth between TSO and the PC 
.( emulator in this case ). 
 
How we found it ?  The tired and true method ...a trace

Subject: SV: Why File transfer through TSO IND$FILE is slower than TCP/IP FTP ?
  
Does that mean that when I use IND$FILE with a 64x128 screen it sends 8192 
bytes at a time ?

Thomas Berg
