[comp.windows.ms] Performance decrease in 256 color mode

NU158739@NDSUVM1.BITNET (Shaun Wetzstein) (03/05/91)

I just got a new 800x600x256 color driver which replaced my old 16 color dvr.
After installing it i noticed a, ~100%+ performance decrease.
I have a 25MHz 386 with a Genoa 6400 SVGA card and 8-Megs ram, of which,
2-Megs is used by SmartDrv.sys and 3-megs is used as a ramdrive for a swapfile
in 386 Enh mode.  Does anyone know of a better "setup" that will maybe increase
performance???  Thanks!
