Good!  :-)

Well, first I would ask whether it is the shell ("dir", "copy", etc.)
or just DOS calls in general. I'm honestly not sure of any (reliable)
benchmarks, e.g. disk or cpu or whatnot.

Oh, I guess you could try TOPBENCH (or something else more naive like
"runtime zip -9r blahblah \blah"):

Still maintained? Not really. But it's better than nothing. If you
have any specific needed pieces, some of us here can probably help get
you up to speed (to a lesser degree). But no, there's nobody
officially working on it full-time. I don't want you getting your
hopes up too high.  :-(
