I am not export in this area but I think it will be common compression with
ppp protcol like Vj-compression. As you might know, VJ-compression is already
popular but it's just compression(get rid of redundancy) of tcp/ip header.
But Predictor-1 will try compression whole date when talk to peer ppp.
This will give us two advantage as follows:

     1. Decrese system over head due to reducing a sio H/W interruption.
        (H/W interruption is required big cpu time especially latest cpu)

     2. For ISDN TA that doen's has a own H/W compression can get double
        speed with not compression data. ( i.e. 38400bps -> 7KB/sec )
