How do I configure my system to get optimal performance under DJGPP?

Improving the overall performance of djgpp applications, including gcc, depends on the amount of RAM you have installed in your machine. Below are some guidelines to help you.

If you have 4 MBytes or less RAM installed

With this configuration, gcc will still run out of free physical RAM and page when compiling large C programs and most C++ programs. Also, you most probably won't be able to run recursive Makefiles. Plan to buy more RAM as soon as you can.

If you have 5-8 MBytes of RAM installed

If you have more than 8 MBytes of RAM
