Re: Fast/Slow polling

Thank you, Fish and Jurgen.
I run Windows 7 on a Quad Core Intel i7 4.0GHz processor. I do not use
IND$FILE. I had five 3270 sessions when I noticed around 10 of these
messages on my console, with no other messages in between. I'm very pleased
with 4.2 as it is by far the fastest and most stable environment for my
testing. So I'll stick with it, until the next release.
Best regards,
