see 11. below

NTSC4DOS rocks :lol3:

Most likely the best idea in your list :clap:

> 20). use Ultra DMA driver (UIDE, UDMA, XDMA, XDMA32)

RAM is better, see 11. above

> 23). avoid (slow!) virtual memory (CWSDPMI) by freeing up RAM

using HDPMI32 ;-)

> 24). run V86 mode (NTVDM, DOSEMU, VMware??) faster than full emu (QEMU, DOSBox)
