>1) What are the sizes of your \OS2\OS2.INI and \OS2\OS2SYS.INI

files?

OS2.INI is about 1.2MB. OS2SYS.INI is about 550K. Doesn't sound
too big, does it?

>2) Does OS/2 see all of your RAM? If you have a bad SIMM then

It's only one 128K DIMM. I suppose it could have partially gone
bad but wouldn't the failure mode have caused more to gone wrong?
In the mean time, what's the best way to check free mem in OS/2?

>3) How big does your \OS2\SYSTEM\SWAPPER.DAT swap file get?

Initial size was set to 16MB but it looked like it was getting to
32MB during this latest escapade. So I changed the initial size
to 32MB and that's pretty much where it stayed. No change in
performance, though.

And, of course, still no joy.
