Actually, the 1.5mbps is the b/w while connecting over a VPN from home. I 
am work now and we are on a 100mbps/1G link(But, the throughput actually 
never goes higher than 2mbps)

But that's another can of worms. 
I should have mentioned that in the earlier post.

I saw that option and changed it to ZRLE w/o much difference.


Let me make sure I have said what I want to correctly.

Using VNC v4 on FC2 from realvnc.com works fine EXCEPT when I have 
thunderbird running. The b/w utilized drops down to 300-400kbps max.

Wez, is this similar to the "blinking cursor issue" we saw with the EDA 
tool called Cadence and with dtterm/xterm on Solaris when running CDE.


Thanks.
