I was trying to add the T time control parameter to clueless and I have some questions. The following is a gamestate file from an actual game using the T parameter.

Are the following meanings correct?
tcmove Time Control seconds per move
tcturns ?
tcreserve Initial reserve time
tcwreserve White reserve time in seconds
tcbreserve Black reserve time in seconds
tcgame Current length of game in seconds
tcgamenow Same as tcgame?
tctotal Maximum length of game in seconds
tcpercent Percent of time added to reserve
tcmax Max reserve time (if zero reserve unlimited)
tcturntime Max length of turn in seconds (if zero turn time unlimited)

In the time control format:
M/R/P/L/G/T
where M is the number of minutes:seconds per move
R is the number of minutes:seconds in reserve
P is the percent of unused move time that gets
added to the reserve
L is the number of minutes:seconds to limit the reserve
G is the number of hours:minutes after which time
the game is halted and the winner is determined
by score. G can also be specified as the maximum
number of moves.
T is the number of minutes:seconds within which
a player must make the move
In the game state file:
tcmove = M
tcreserve = R
tcpercent = P
tcmax = L
tctotal = G if G was given as a time
tcturns = G if G was given as number of turns
tcturntime = T
tcwreserve White reserve time in seconds
tcbreserve Black reserve time in seconds
tcgame Current length of game in seconds
tcgamenow Do not use; it is usually set to tcgame
In the game state file all times are converted to seconds.

Oh, does the client get sent the whole set of previous moves after every move? That would explain why my lag seems to get worse (over dialup) later in the game.

It might also be a factor in the Mozilla crashes after about 20 moves.

Yes, not only the whole movelist but also the whole chat text for the flash client. It's not very efficent. I need to redo the whole client/server system eventually.
Sending a lot of data does not cause the warning message. It's due to the HTTP connection being kept open for a long time.
