It reports the following:

    DPMI memory available: 4931 Kb
    DPMI swap space available: 130325 Kb

which is, I suppose, what I'd expect given 8M total RAM and a 2M nwcache.
If I adjust the cache down to 1M, DPMI memory reported above goes up
accordingly, but compile performance doesn't really change...

Is this not enough memory for decent performance?

Thanks,
