I didn't know that trick!

According to user's comments on GEnie, Jet slows down if more  than 1/2 meg
of memory is present.  Most noticable on the Megas, it supposedly also occurs
on the 1040.  Work-around is to run "make512.tos" or an appropriate sized RAM
disk before starting Jet.  I have noticed a slight slowdown (could be my
imagination) when I _don't_ use a 1/2 meg RAM disk on my 1040; the affect is
supposed to be much more pronounced with the Megas.
