On my systems FTP is still faster than IND$FILE, but let me just throw out
a little tidbit for consideration.

On my own Personal Communications sessions that use IND$FILE for transfers,
I found a very noticeable increase in speed if I defined my connections
using the numeric dotted IP address for the host instead of a host name
that got resolved through DNS.    I can't explain why.  I can only report
that someone once suggested that to me and it did make my IND$FILE
transfers faster.  YMMV.
