> DWED support up to 2G memory into own swap file (sort of "Linked List into
> .DBT"). Will be good to place your %TMP% to ramdisk for it.

Some testing results.

File: enwiki8 (first bytes of English Wikipedia dump on Mar. 3, 2006)
Size: 1E8 bytes (100,000,000)
File in UTF8 without conversion (dwed nothing known about utf8).

DosBox-X, Speed: 3000 cycles/ms (~286 20-25mhz)

Open time: 50m
Save time: 25m
(this is a approximate values, because 18 timer ticks is counted as 1 second)

Swap size: 139mb (raw string data) + 23mb (index) = 163m
Used <2mb XMS as r/w cache (non actual for dosbox/dosbox-x, because IO was cached by host OS).

Imho, 286 is undervalued in this time :-D.

If talk serious, need more speed optimization. If use for editing files with less size (like 4mb), speed (load/save) is "acceptable, but need small improvement".
