It's still much faster than the hardware, that I was using at - say - 1991. The HDD itself has quite large hardware cache (16 MB - incredibly large space compared to 640 KB). > But actually even DOS software gets slower and bloatier over time. Maybe I wasn't clear enough in my writing: that pauses occur, for example, even when I've got to save just edited autoexec.bat - then we're talking about 2 KB (or so) text file. Not sure, but my guess is "hardware problem". -- regards, Zbigniew ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
