I'm waiting for a 64 KB file to transfer over a 300 baud modem
For reference, this picture of the device that I'm transferring the file to has a similar file size (60.5 KB):

On a modern, say, 1 Gb/s internet connection, a 64 KB will transfer in 0.0004883 seconds. But at 300 baud I have to wait 29 minutes.
Edit: Great... after about a half hour of successfully transferring over 300 "blocks" of data, it terminated the connection with an unspecified error. Now it's trying again. I'm not optimistic about it at this point. In my experience, when something errors out once, it usually does it every time unless you specifically find the problem and fix it before trying again.
