It's doing *very* well for us. We're using 486/100 or Pentium/75, 16 MBytes RAM, fast HD (Quantum FireBall) and *NO* momory hungry features like SMARTDRV or recommended memory configurations for caching the virtual memory of windows. If we increase the virtual memory cache to 4M, it almost stops! So slow! If we decrease it to 128K, using 32-bit file access and 32-bit interface access, with about 40 MBytes of virtual memory, Ok! We're back running fast.

Don't forget to see you video cache, bios cache and so forth.
