- G. Optimize (included with DV 386, QEMM, QRAM)

- - Now has the ability to process embedded batch files in a
- user's Autoexec.bat file.
- - "Squeeze," a new capability to temporarily increase the high
- RAM region in high memory during a program's load and
- initialization. This feature is helpful for programs that
- require more memory while they are initializing than they do
- once they are resident.
- - Optimize can now automatically exclude portions of high
- memory accessed by device drivers and TSR's. This avoids
- conflicts with hardware that previous versions failed to
- detect.
- - Users can now create "response files" that QEMM-386's LOADHI
- programs can use to get information about where and how to
- load programs high. This is valuable for network users who
- load TSRs from public batch files on the network.
- - Optimize now lets users view, browse and play with the list
- of device drivers and TSRs that the program has relocated to
- high-memory--allowing users to perform "What-if?" analyses
- with their memory configuration.
