After spending several frustrating hours trying to get the benchmark 
files from the Bath site, which is all-to-often impossibly slow from 
here (www.bath.ac.uk is fine), Jean Piche's email arrived about the 
mirror site at:

    ftp://ftp.musique.umontreal.ca/pub/mirrors/dream/

Thanks for this!!!  I can access everything really quickly.  I had 
been using traceroute from various locations trying to find out why 
ftp.maths.bath.ac.uk was often impossible to reach . . . with no real 
conclusion.
