Sure have.  I use Z-term and it tells me the efficeincy of the download and
since they upgraded kermit, the eff. rate has dropped significantly.
 
I've also noticed a drop in the packet size too.  It's been sending smaller
packets, and I think this is a major reason why kermit is so slow.  I don't use
z-modem, but i'm thinking about trying it out for a while....
