I have lots (7 Meg) of memory and would like to reconfigure my kernel to take 
advantage of it - the default kernel only has 100K of buffer space.  I am sure
that, if I had a properley configured kernel I would see a fairly large speed
increase. 

The system I'm on is an AT running IBM Xenix 2.00 (Sys V).  I tried to use the
config command, but I must be real confused about it, because it spewed at me
when I fed it what seemed to be a perfectly reasonable config file.

Has anyone done this before and would you be willing to assist?  While I'm at
it, does anyone have any suggestions as to what numbers I should use for the
various tunable parameters to get the most out of my machine?
