Frederic,
lejosrun does not support 4x download. It has a -f or --fast flag but the
"use_fast" variable that this sets is not used.
lejosfirmdl does support 4x download with serial towers. It does this by

2400 bps to 4800 bps, and omits the complement bytes sent after each byte.
The lejos firmware does not support this so fast download cannot be used for
programs. I think it could be made to work, but switching modes between
program download and program running might be tricky.
