1. A system for minimizing the screen refresh time of a display in communication with a first computer over a network, said system comprising:

  • a compression algorithm selector on said first computer selecting one of several compression algorithms for compressing data at said first computer prior to transmission of said data over said network to said display, said compression algorithm selector comprising;

    a calculator determining compression and transmission times of said data for more than one of said compression algorithms ; and

    a selector selecting among said compression algorithms of said compression algorithms based on a relationship between the compression and transmission times determined by the calculator.
