I'm running MS-DOS 4.01 on a 25Mhz AMI '386.  When I run the Landmark
cpu-speed test (the one with the bar that graphically compares the
speed of the processor to the speed of a 4.77Mhz PC and a 6Mhz AT)
the value I get depends on how many TSRs are loaded -- but not
monotonically.  The value I get is either 25 (approx) or 17 (approx)
and changes from one to the other as I load TSRs.  Some TSRs cause
the change, some don't.  Any idea what's going on?
