Subject: Speed up DJGPP on a 386?

I just a got 386/20,6/80 B&W laptop from a friend &
I've been using DJGPP on my P120,16/850 desktop so I
want to use DJGPP on my new laptop but it is painfully
slow.  I have it currently set up like this:
mouse & smartdrv in hi/umb mem
617K free conv mem
45K free hi/umb mem
1MB smartdrv disk cache
4MB EMS

When I compile a simple hello world program
like this one w/ -09 -s -m386(I use these
gcc options for all programs) it takes about
20x's longer than my P120(10 secs as compared
to 3+mins):
----------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>

int main(void)
{
  printf("Hello World\n");
  getch();
  return 0;
}
-------------
Is there anything I can do to speed
up these times?
