The below text is 100% correct.

In our office, with Hog set to 1 (the slowest setting) printing took 60
seconds or so.

I set everyone in the office to 5 and I set the people who write the
checks to 8.  ;-)

That got printing down to about 15-20 seconds for the people set to 5
and 3-4 seconds for the people set to 8.

It made a dramatic difference.  If you have someone in your office that
you'd like to get on their good side, set them at 10 and tell them not
to tell anyone.  They'll be so happy and you can re-enforce the "all
powerful and loving sys-admin" persona that staff used to have for IT
people.

(uhh... I guess I'm assuming you're in a multiuser environment and your
users don't know about the .dosemurc file)

And this can be the the reason why you have slow execution or slow
printing:
dosemu is not allowed to pass alot of CPU power to the dos app.
Try allowing dosemu to hog CPU and see if it helps. To do that, you
should set 
$_hogthreshold to 0.
