Hi everybody,

I vaguely remember reading somewhere that their download/upload speed
increased significantly after using the asyncmap feature of ppp. If
asyncmap option is not specified ppp will escape all control characters.
So it does seem, some improvement might be obtained by stopping this
unnecessary escaping which will take up 2bytes instead of one.
 
 What I want to know, which are the charcters that need escaping. Or is
it ok to give "asyncmap 0" in which case no characters will be escaped.
Since scroll up/down <backspace> <return> are all used on the local copy
of a downloaded file I dont think they need to be escaped, but what about
the "^]".

 Has anybody experienced noticeable improvements, with this. I am still in
a bit of doubt about how significant the change might be
