Along with all this talk about 4DOS...

I gave the docs a cursory look and installed it on my AT clone.  One thing
disconcerting is that the first time I do a 'dir' it takes at least a second or
two just sitting there before it spits anything out to the screen.  Subsequent
dirs for the same directory occur at a speed I consider reasonable.

I believe I did the installation correctly.  I do have expanded memory that
I've told it about, and I have PCTools' disk caching on.

Is this performance normal?
