Improving the speed?

Improving the speed?

[Jonathan Terbio]

Hi Guys,

We are running clipper compiled application and it really slow on 
performance. Any idea how to improve the performance?

My distros is 7.2 redhat
dosemu - 1.0.2.1
ram 128 sdram

Have you checked hog threshold?  It caused me the same problem.  I think
I set it to 5 for my main users and 8 for my managers and people who ran
lots of reports.  That equated to about a 386 for my normal users and a
486 for my managers.  (on a single processor pIII 450 MHz server)

Re: Improving the speed? $hog_threshold not much

what is your current $_hogthreshold value?
since your users are on athlon 1.1 GHz machines, you may 
want to raise $_hogthreshold a little higher than what 
Matthew suggested.
also, if your dosemu sessions are running under X, it 
might help to change your $_term_updfreq and/or your 
$_X_updfreq values.

Juan,

I set to 20 my $_hogthershold it improves the speed.  later i will test the 
_updfreq because some users are not happy with the refresh rare..




Thanks and regards

        I remember $_rdtsc = (on) on non-Intel cpus was cause to
        strange behaviour of dosemu session.

        Anyway try tame.exe utility.
