Same where I went at Leeds Uni in the mid 80s.

Ours was just for CS undergrads mostly when I was there, and wasn't too overloaded. I guess we had about fifty terminals maybe on campus at least.

I remember we could dial it up from a couple of terminals in our Halls of Residence over JANET.

You are right, I never found it that slow either - loved that machine and the terminal to terminal messaging was crazy fun.
