Out of curiosity, did FDAPM not prevent high CPU usage? Typically, you
would run this in your FDAUTO.BAT

FDAPM /apmdos


For example, that's what I use in my FDAUTO.BAT, and FDAPM /STATS
shows the CPU is idle about half the time:

Yes, sadly my web search result omitted FDAPM, it seems to work well here, like DOSidle does and it takes only 1K of RAM despite of DOSidle that it takes 3K of RAM.

So, is there any drawback to add that line (FDAPM /apmdos) together the other lines related to FDAPM that already exist in FDAUTO.BAT?
...
alias reset=fdisk /reboot
alias reboot=fdapm warmboot
alias halt=fdapm poweroff
...

Maybe "FDAPM /apmdos" is not included as default because it can slow down some application, am I correct?
