I have a small question.  How much does the handling of real mode interrupt
handlers slow down when a djgpp program using cwsdpmi is running.  If, for
example, I have a standard tsr handling com port interrupts at a high rate
with real mode code, would a program like lynx under dos cause the system to
loose interrupts, while a real mod program would not.  

Another question is how stable would a system be with a tsr requiring
cwsdpmi.  For example would a system with such a tsr survive the starting up
and the shutting down of Windows.  Would it be possible for a windows
program to communicate with such a tsr, under Windows 95 or 98.

Thank you very much

Willem Bekker
