either you report your config.sys and autoexec.bat for both tests
or your report is basically useless.

write caching smartdrv (which freedos is known not to have) makes a
HUGE difference for installers, so you are comparing apples to oranges.

of course running both without autoexec/config.sys would place them on
an equal playing field.
