Have you tried "nice"?

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!

Note the following in your ~/.dosmeurc:

# 0 = all CPU power to DOSEMU; default = 1 = nicest, then higher:more CPU
power

hi all,

is theer a way to reduce dosemu cpu use ? I use foxpro/clipper application
that make dosemu use high cpu power.

the hogtreshold directive already set to 0 but it doesn't make any change.

thanks
kemas

Set it to 1, not 0.

Confusingly:

1 = least CPU power to DOSEMU
2 = slightly more CPU power to DOSEMU
3 = even more CPU power to DOSEMU
.
.
.
infinity represented as '0' = all CPU power to DOSEMU
