DPMI is probably setting up a swapfile (like CWSDPMI, Windows or
whatever you may us), since DJGPP compiles to 4GB 32-bit flat memory,
which uses the Intel chipsets paging and segmentation for virtual
memory. (Typically on the harddisk) see if you can get your DPMI
settings to disable harddisk swapping, this will obviously give you less
virtual memory.
