- I just installed 1.99o, and I noticed that the FAQ states that Executor is
- known to work with CWSDPMI, OS/2 and Windows as DPMI providers. You can add
- 386Max to that list. Executor runs well under 386Max, better than under
- Windows or CWSDPMI in fact.
-
- This section should also mention that Executor will crash when Novell DPMS
- (Dos Protected Mode Services) is running. This is the memory manager used by
- Novell DOS and Stacker. Fortunately, Stacker can be run without it if you
- are using another memory manager such as 386Max, and doesn't use it when you
- are running Windows. A simple fix, so it should mentioned in the FAQ in the
- DPMI section.
-
- Version 1.99o works well. Speedometer is useful: I installed a disk cache
- after I ran it, and Executor sped up dramatically. I noticed that the
- benchmarks run faster the second time; cache and recompilation effects I assume.
-
- Overall, an amazing product! I can't wait to see what 2.0 brings us!
