The speed of data transfer is a function of (basically)
a) the amount of data, and
b) the speed of the connection.
So to reduce the time to send data from point x to point y you need to
reduce a) or increase b).
Increasing b) may be impossible depending on the connection. So you are left
with attempting to reduce a).
Things to look at:
1) send less by only sending data that's really required (ie be smart),
2) send less by eliminating duplication (an adjunct to 1 really),
3) try a compression scheme if possible.

Subject: Help needed on faster access of data from remote server
Hi,
I am writing a client application on palm which fetches data from a remote
server using TCP/IP. But the process is very slow.
How to transfer data in shorter period of time? Can someone help?
Thanks in advance.
Narayanan.
