I downloaded djgpp very recently - readme.1st sez 2.03.

Everything is working great on a single processor PIII 667 running
Win2k.  Thanx to my employer I had to put it all on a CD & run it from
there.  But once the cd spins up, it works great.

My CD was copied to a SAMBA share on a LAN server not accessible from
my PIII.  When running bash/emacs/gcc/less on a dual processor P4
running Win2k, response is v-e-r-y s-l-o-w [10s of seconds] or
not-at-all [gcc].

grep & other utilities are very responsive when run from cmd.exe
[command prompt] within the limits of LAN latency.

I have noticed that, while waiting for bash or emacs to complete their
startup display, or cmd/less to display file contents, I can exit the
respective program & shutdown completes & the window goes away before
the display completes.

This is my first encounter with dual-processor WinNT/2k - is there
something inherent that antagonizes DJGPP executables?

Much Obliged, Bob
