Hi all,

	I have a little technical question here:

	How does the INMOS socket library work, in case of a transputer net linked to a host with an IMS-B300 bix ? 

I really want to know the more technical bits, because we are working on a project here, and it needs PERFORMANCE ...

So for example I want to know wether the sockets are send all the way to the
host (i.e. through the IMS-B300 box) or is all socket communication handeled
by this B300 ?
Another question I would like answered is wether these sockets use the iserver,
or are they implemented over Aserver ?
Maybe there are some timings allready available too ? 
It would sure save us some work here ... :-)

Any help would be appreciated ...

		Ron.
