- It sounds like you are starting your script from the command line when you
- (or your batch file) starts Paradox. This is fine, but the -space arguement
- won't display until after that script has ended. If you want to see the
- startup memory allocation, make sure you are starting Paradox "raw",
- without any other arguments except for "-space".
-
- The current feeling is about -codepool 750 for a 4 mb machine, maybe a little
- more. You will be trading query, report, and sort speed for increased PAL
- performance (although things will _still_ be faster).
-
- I hope this helps
