Does anyone know whether enabling FIFO should increase or decrease the
compression figures seen in the RAS Status window? Although I wasn't
getting any overruns, and I've got my port set at 115200, I thought it
pretty silly to have a 16550 and not use it :) But the compression for
incoming data definitely seems to have gone down.

I know I should be able to think this out logically and rationally but
my brain hurts after a hard day at the office...
