File Service Protocol - Protocol Name

Protocol Name

The name FSP was originally created without a real expansion. In 1993, discussions were held about what to expand the acronym to; the ultimate result was File Service Protocol. Other suggestions included File Slurping Protocol, FTP's Sexier Partner, and Flaky Stream Protocol. Due to its inherent low performance, FSP was sometimes colloquially said to stand for "Fucking Slow Protocol".
