I tried both file mappings. Does not affect anything (significantly).
Saying 'direct' you mean 'console' option in 'video' statement of dosemu.conf?
video { vga console graphics }
It was so from the beginning.
It is quicker in comparison to
video { vga }
I can't use more card-specific statement, because my video card is not
supported.
I tried to play with timint/HogThreshold/irqpassing parameters. Things seems
to be a bit quicker now, but I am still suffering from slow I/O.

Thank you. I subscribed to dosemu mailing list and shall ask there too.
If I fail, I'll yell you for help :-)
Of course all this is not the live-or-death question, but it bothers me very
much to reboot from linux to dos and back for recompiling part of work.
