These speeds from v.32 or v.32bis connections usually indicate some type of
data compression is being used, i.e. MNP-5 and/or v.42bis, and that you get
large volumes of news.  Large enough to matter at least. If your not using 
v.42bis or MNP-5 then this won't help and I dont know what else might work 
for you.  

Disable MNP5 and V.42bis before calling a UUCICO session (this can be done
easily in the DIALERS section).  When I did that I consistantly get throughput
of 850 to 900 cps receive and 550 to 650 cps when sending.  This is with 'g'
protocol and the standard packet sizes and windows sizes.
