Not bad, considering its simplicity 

Yes! I was also impressed when I tried it. Pretty cool.

I don't think I understand the point of speeding up an interface/protol that already goes faster than the data can be displayed on most displays, and MUCH faster than it can be consumed by a user...

I guess it's fun.  But...

It also needs to transport other stuff.
Including bitmaps.

reason2, today a new member joined the team and proposed to make a vintage CPU version of hterm.
His hardware has 10Mbit/s ethernet, hence it will use a subset of the hterm protocol and see built-in compression helps.

Odd vintage world.
