Applications / Curious about these old patches
« on: March 05, 2018, 06:20:43 am »
These are some patches I have used in the past. Are any of these still relevant for ArcaOS?
1. http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/download/pub/os2/system/patches/PMFIX.zip
FIX1: SYS3171 (Stack Overflow) on PMSHELL.EXE and others. FIX2: USING PM_SystemFonts->DefaultFont CHANGES ALL FORM SIZES
2. http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/download/pub/os2/system/patches/mixed/pipepatch.zip
This patch will increase the pipe buffer size of pipes instantiated with the pipe operator | of CMD.EXE from 512 bytes to 65024 bytes (by default). This will significantly improove the throughput and reduce the CPU load. In fact it reduces the minimum number of task swiches per megabyte from 4096 to about 33.
3. http://ca-arnold.de/download/newcalls104.zip
patch for pmmerge.dll to increase performance of writing INI-files.
4.http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/download/pub/os2/util/system/cpuspeed1.4.zip
Tries to keep the CPU as cool as possible without affecting system performance by adaptive throttling using ACPI 2.0. Version 1.4.
