First of all, thank for the replies.
I must have said a few thinks before:
- Cache size = 1024 kbytes
- Ram disk = 512 kbytes,
so size is NOT the problem.
I set the environmental variable TMP equal to D:\ for the compiler intermediate
files to be written on, in order to speed up compiling, as the C manual writes.
The NEW stuff now is the following, which I have overloked and is a simple one.
Pay attention to what happens during the compiling:
RECORDER 1.0 (c) 1988 Ziff Communications Co.

QCL.EXE 1 0 0 1
LINK.EXE 1 0 0 1
XRAY. 1 1 0 0
RECORDER.COM 1 0 0 1
Notice the number of times the OBJ's and EXE's are written, and since the cache
is write through, ....
So, to improve compiling speed, I write the OBJ's and EXE's to the ramdisk
using the appropriate parameters in the command line of C compiler.
I also run the cache, and a see the disk light to be on for quite a little time.
(How about speeding up the 6 MHz CPU? :-) )
