Neither nor ...
Ncache is faster than smartdrv, but it's unnoticeable.
If you use QEMM's stealth feature, than you have much more memory than with
MSDOS EMM386, _BUT_ the computer is slowed down.
If you don't use stealth, and configure emm386 correctly, than you get
nearly as much memory than with QEMM. (so no mis-management)
Could you tell me again, where you notice the slowdown ??

So static values work for you ?? GREAT !

PS: If you have enough space for UMSDOS Linux, and know that it is only
intended to try linux out, than good.
PPS: I do think that windows users notice if their connection speed
multiplies by 10 ! Why should they not notice ??
