Is there any parameter that can be tuned to get a better response time for interactive shells and windows ? Does this have anything to do with the size of NeWS and/or the swapping algorithm ? Any information welcome, thanks, -- George Drettakis Dynamic Graphics Project Systems Administrator Computer Systems Research Institute BITNET: dgplab@dgp.utoronto University of Toronto EAN: dgplab@dgp.toronto.cdn Toronto, Ontario M5S 1A4
