Fast/Slow 6386s

[Dave Droman]

I have a customer who is running two (almost) identical 6386 16Mz systems.
One has a 135MB ESDI drive and the other has a 40MB ST506 drive; both have
4MB RAM.

Both the systems are running ix386 and VP/IX and the identical applications.
The 40MB is "blowing the doors off" the 135MB.  Indeed, DOS applications under
VP/IX are actually reasonable on the 40.  

Any suggestions on this inconsistancy and how I might go about
making the 135 run as the 40 is running?

Any consideration by those in the know will be appreciated.

Dave
