This does not require your code to be rewritten just two small pieces of code to be inserted. It had been seen a 280 times increase in INI update times! While the included example shows one way to incorporate FASTINI code, the recommended approach is to use the FASTINI.XH header file. FastINI Header is a header file and example program on the best way to use my FASTINI.DLL to greatly boost OS/2 rexx's SysIni () performance (hundreds of times faster).

UpdIni moves the files OS2.INI and OS2SYS.INI into a ramdisk and copies these files back to harddisk in regular intervals. The idea behind this is to accelerate the WPS. The WPS updates these INI files in irregular intervals with high priority, suspending all other activities for the moment. With the INI files located on a ramdisk, access time is significantly reduced, the user may even not notice any activity at all. Freeware.

This new version now finds directories as well as files It finds files faster than ever before thanks to simultaneous multiple drive searching and one pass multiple file filters including searching and editing of Zip archives. String searches are not only ultra fast due to the use of the Boyer-Moore-Horspool algorithm, but there is minimal load on both the WPS and CPU even when multiple logical operations are specified. Once a file has been found, it can be selected, sorted, manipulated and inspected in a wide range of ways, even while more files are being found. With this latest version it is now possible to use up to 4 groups of Logical operators (AND, OR, NOT) when searching for strings both in files and extended attributes. Specific files and or types of files can be ignored as well as optionally ignoring hidden directories and specific paths. Multi-lingual support has been improved with updated text and help files.

| CantWait_1998-10-13.zip | Can't Wait (1998-10-13) - Speeds web browsing by decreasing the MTU size. [Archiver's note: I was under the impression that, like in most OSes (Win9x aside), OS/2's various TCP/IP negotiation programs, including ppp.exe which this would most likely affect, allowed the user to change the MTU size as he or she sees fit. I know that ppp.exe takes mtu as a commandline parameter, at least, though the comment in the .cmd file indicates otherwise. In the meantime, to answer the question posed in the text of the .cmd file, the MTU specifies the largest sized packet which the dialup server will send your machine at a time. A smaller MTU doesn't increase the amount of bandwidth available (it actually decreases it slightly), it only decreases the average latency which applies to multiple open TCP connections and so web browsing *seems* to go faster, since files can be downloaded more in parallel. It's akin to how in most cases multitasking operating systems don't really run multiple programs simultaneously, it only switches between several runni [Detail] | application/zip 1.96 KB | 2022-04-28 |
