I could see that on like Z80s running over a 9.6kbps link, but VAX level gear on a 10 Mbps ethernet LAN?

It can't be the protocol overhead alone, CTERM must be seriously brain-damaged by design.

A CTERM vs RTERM vs LAT vs TELNET comparison would be a nice thing to look at... :)

I always had the feeling that CTERM is "heavy". Of course LAT has to be the lightest of those protocols, being (by designl) a non-routable MAC-based LAN-only protocol...
