AST RESEARCH TECHNICAL BULLETIN TB-0239 10/13/86
MULTIMATE AND SUPERSPOOL IN DESQVIEW
A problem was reported to Tech Suport regarding the use of
Multimate and AST's Superspool program in a DESQview window.
When trying to print a Multimate file through Superspool, inside
a DESQview window, the printing action is very slow. Printing
action is normal outside of the DESQview environment.
After testing, this condition was found to be normal. Any
application doing I/O in a DESQview window is going to appear to
slow down. This is because DESQview must divide processing time
among the different applications running in windows. The DESQview
setup program alots a certain number of clock "ticks" to each
application.
