Speed Too Slow Under Windows |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: A customer running WordPerfect under Windows 3.0 found that merging in WP took a long time; it took approximately 20 minutes to merge 17 records. When the customer ran WP from DOS, merging in WP only took 50 seconds to merge 39 records. The customer has 4M of RAM. Solutions: The customer altered the .PIF file so WordPerfect was running in Exclusive Mode (check the box next to Exclusive under the Execution heading of the .PIF file). This change helped the speed considerably. Another customer found that each keystroke took a ridiculous amount of time to execute (5 to 10 seconds) when WP ran under Windows using the .PIF file Windows set up. This customer corrected the problem by using either the WP51-386.PIF or WP51-286.PIF file (depending on what mode Windows was running in). |
