Since I've noticed that DJGPP is HIGHLY disk-intensive, I tried setting up a
RAM disk for swapping and for the include files.  Unfortunately, it starts to
compile (cpp) and then hangs for no apparent reason.  I'm running under DR-DOS
6.0 and am using the VDISK.SYS utility included with the program.  I'm also
using QEMM 6.01 as a memory manager.

Is it possible to run DJGPP while swapping to a RAM disk?  If so, has anyone
who experienced the VDISK Blues found a cure for them?
