 Ni> With Windows, there was a program I had used called Tame, which would do something to reduce CPU usage of a running process
 Ni> and make it more responsive when running in NTVDM in Windows. I doubt Tame would work with dosemu though. I'm wondering if
 Ni> there is a process-taming program for DOS programs running in dosemu, or if there are any dosemu2 settings that might help a
 Ni> DOS program run better and respond quicker?

i don't know if running it "niced" at a lower priority will help. sometimes it does. but i would guess it's just a bad behaving door.

 Ni> I'm wondering if the issue in such DOS programs might be some kind of loop it's running that's taking a lot of CPU time.


most likely this is the reason
