I installed Cnews on rbdc the other day in hopes of an improvement
in the speed of processing a large news feed.  I found that it is
running slower than B news 2.11.17 (on an AT&T 6386 20mHz 80386 box).
I have not got all the patches yet (I'm working on that now) but feel
that a lot of the problem may be the lack of DBM.  Can someone confirm
this, and is their a DBM replacement package around (and where can I
get it).  I am sorry if this has been covered before.  Please e-mail.
Thanks in advance.
