Just to throw another twist into the mystery around the 1.3.[78]* SLIP/PPP slowdowns, I experienced the same problem with a 1.2.13 kernel today, with both the ppp-2.2.0e and ppp-2.2.0f (beta 5) software installed. This kernel was compiled on a system with:
Kernel: 1.3.75 Libc: 5.2.18 GCC: 2.7.2 (-fno-strength-reduce is in specs :-)
(This kernel also has a number of patches from http://trishul.sci.gu.edu.au/~tony/linux/patches.html, including the main 1.2.13 bugfix patch, quotas, kswap, pcsnd, ramdisk-disable, 486/586 tuning patch, SAK, and of course the elf patch (yes, I fixed pcsnd for elf)).
The machine it runs on boots from floppy (don't ask) if that has anything at all to do with it (don't think it could, but anyway).
Does this help? :-) *duck*
