Loading Word5.1 files seem slow
I'm running E/L 1.99q12 on 1.2.13 and have 16M ram. Every so often Word
5.1 files (after Word loaded) takes longer than usual to display on the
screen. I say display because the harddrive is not spinning so I think the
file has already been loaded. The files are only 5 or 6 pages long. My
recollection is that the Word files seemed to load quicker before.
Executor is started with -applzone 5500k -syszone 0.75M -stack 0.5M
-nosplash -nosound -geometry =1015x725+0+0 switches.
Another minor irritant is that sometimes scrolling (screen redraw) is
quite slow. If I move to another virtual page (FVWM) for a while and then
come back, redrawing seems to be normal again.
Is there any thing I can do to fix these minor problems? E/L has
for the most part been a very productive tool for me.
thanks,
stephen
