This is from Stas when I asked about the difference between 1.2.1 and
1.2.2:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
There is really not too much to explain. $_hogthreshold is a nasty hack.
It makes dosemu to sleep() when an app calls the certain bios or DOS
functions.  When some program starts to consume too much of the CPU when
idle, people complain and we add more of that sleep() points. In latest
1.3 this was polished a little more and also sigsuspend() is being used
instead of sleep(). The hope is that it will make more users happy, but
overall the one must be ready to change the $_hogthreshold for his own
needs. Herbert Xu used $_hogthreshold=(2) as a default for debian.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

So there may not be a reasonable default especially for 1.2.x.
