Did you use a disk cache?  Try typing "smartdrv" before using any of 
the djgpp tools.  You can also remove some startup overhead by 
running "cwsdpmi -p", which preloads the DPMI server so that the 
djgpp startup code doesn't have to do this.  See the FAQ (chapter 7 
and section 3.9) for more information.
