 I have a strange behaviour with a terminal program called
"pmcomm32.exe" and the OS/2 version from the PDK 11/92. I was
downloading a 700K file and got a strange behaviour of the swapper-file.

The size of this file was grewing!!!

 At download-size      swapper.dat

   256K                   3.14 MB
   272KB                  4.19 MB
   315KB                  6.29 MB
   325KB                  7.34 MB
   345KB                  8.38 MB
   402KB                 10.48 MB

 I left the zmodem-protocol at about swap-size of 16MB, left the program
and the garbage collector stopped at 6MB swapper.dat size. 

 I've not noticed this behaviour with the 10/92 CD-ROM. 


 Can someone confirm this behaviour?
