.B deflate \fInr,nt
Request that the peer compress packets that it sends, using the
-Deflate scheme, with a maximum window size of \fI2**nr\fR bits, and
+Deflate scheme, with a maximum window size of \fI2**nr\fR bytes, and
agree to compress packets sent to the peer with a maximum window size of
-\fI2**nt\fR bits. If \fInt\fR is not specified, it defaults to the value
+\fI2**nt\fR bytes. If \fInt\fR is not specified, it defaults to the value
given for \fInr\fR. Values in the range 8 to 15 may be used for
\fInr\fR and \fInt\fR; larger values give better compression but
consume more kernel memory for compression dictionaries.
