     When I run djgpp on plain DOS, it is so slow that it seems hang
forever. For only one line program in C++, it took 2'30". But when I run 
the djgpp on Windows DOS box for the same program, it seems ok (it took 
20"). I wonder what causes this problem.

     My machine is DX2/66 with 8M RAM. I use Smartdrive instead of RAM
drive. Any comments are very much appreciated.
