I don't know about Windows' DPMI, but I did some performance testing of CSWDPMI vs DRDOS7.03's DPMI. BOOM (DOOM clone) ran at the same speed +/- less than 0.1% difference (however it takes quite a bit longer to get thrashy on DRDOS's DPMI). OTOH, BSPv3.0 ran at 10% faster on DRDOS's DPMI. This was reproducible and consistent. Eli: got your long mail, I'm just behind. ~REZ~
