One additional word...  If your network is sufficiently fast and error 
free...   These network timers do not apply (period).

The initial problem description "possible solution to performance issues 
with FTP client on HP3000" does not describe the problem properly...  The 
configuration change of the TCP timers is necessary for FTP to operate in an 
environment where the network is poor performing and/or poor quality.
