Hi all, Here's an odd situation with two computers, one a desktop the other a laptop both running Ubuntu 10.10 (Kernel 2.6.5-23-generic 32bit) and dosemu 1.4.0. Both have the same configuration files and I have installed the DOS-based accounting program. On the desktop computer the accounting program operates perfectly. >From lauching dosemu to when the program opens takes less than 2 seconds. On the laptop simple commands like "dir" can take 2 to 3 seconds to execute. From launch to when the program opens takes up to 2 minutes. Aside from one being a desktop and the other a laptop, the main difference is that the desktop is a single core Intel processor while the laptop has an AMD Turion X2 64 (dual core) processor. I have set the hogthreshold setting to 0, the cpuspeed to 0 with no noticeable difference. I have even tried using taskset to force the program to use just one core. Can anyone think of any reason why dosemu on one computer is blazingly fast and on the other is disappointingly slow?
