Craig, OK, I'd like to put this little piece of folklore to bed. I have just run a test, with QEMM, w/no memory manager, and with HIMEM.SYS. *EXACT* same rendering times, to the second! I can only presume that Gary's system is running faster w/QEMM due to QEMM handling better some possible system conflicts (that otherwise slow things down) or to QEMM RAM/ROM shadowing, where these would otherwise need to be disabled because of hardware incompatibility. 50-60% faster. Nonsense! Nonsense, I say! Kevin Krell – Computer Support Associates
