  11. Hi !
  12.  
  13. I would like to know what is the typical interrupt latency time under
  14. Windows 3.1 on an Intel-486 PC. By interrupt latency, I mean the time between
  15. the interrupt signal and the start of the interrupt service routine.
  16.  
  17. Also, I like to know the context-switching time for two Windows tasks sharing
  18. the same virtual-8086 mode process, and the context-switching time between
  19. a Windows task and a DOS task executing on different virtual-8086 mode
  20. processes.
  21.  
  22. If you have these numbers, please send me email. Thanks in advance !
  23.
