Some functions run more slowly on AIX than other platforms. Why? Are there any tweaks?

The telnet server on AIX has (used to have?) a bug that silently drops data it receives from the client, if the amount of data exceeds a certain threshold. Because of this, the messaging protocol AccuTerm uses for GUI, GED, WED and other features switches from a streaming mode to an ack/nak mode.

To improve performance, the maximum message length can be increased from the default of 80 characters to 2000 characters. This is accomplished by editing the KMTCFG item in the ACCUTERMCTRL file and storing the new limit on line 52. The value of 2000 was determined by experimentation. You can use a value up to 9999, but in all cases, this number must be less than the line length that causes an automatic CR for a BASIC INPUT statement.

If you change this setting, be sure to test before placing into production.

Thanks,

Pete
