Check out http://www.speedguide.net for their tuning tool. I've used it at home on my cable modem connection. Works great! I haven't used their tuning on dialups, but they have a lot of information on tuning and tweaking.

Are they using some kind of VPN client? I've seen behavior like this that has been solved by lowering the MTU value in the VPN client being used.

Hi, I have attached a mail from one of our users. Any input is greatly appreciated.

----

One thing that is particularly troublesome while using Perforce

from my home PC (over a 56K dialup >connection) is that it will not allow me to submit updates exceeding a certain number of files or a certain >number of bytes (and just what that magic number is I don't know). That is, if I've opened a large number >of files for edit, and then submit them later on, it will actually disconnect from the dialup

server. It will >proceed for some time as if it is checking the files

back in, but then, towards the end, it hangs up the >connection. I can get around this by breaking the submission into several smaller submissions. Am I >violating some Perforce rule or something??

----- First shot I thought that is would be due to some default time-out set

somewhere and peforce has nothing to do with this. I still believe so.

Thank You Raju
