Sorry, I don't recall the exact figures, but with a claimed 115200
baud IrDA link I think it was something less than what we could
otherwise get with a 9600 baud cable link. Figures from the data
sheet for the MCP2150 taking overheads and turnaround times into
account show typical throughput 62.7% with packets of 64 bytes size,
down to 2.6% for single byte packets (all at 115200 baud). The data
sheet explains fairly well what factors affect throughput, guess we
were just trying to use it with suitably inefficient packet sizes.
