I don't suppose anyone knows, but I'll ask anyway: OS/2 1.21 works really, really sluggishly on our 286/12 with 2MB RAM and 512MB CF+XTIDE. "It takes 15 seconds to resize a Paintbrush window from WLO" kind of sluggishly. I suspect it might be caused by XTIDE or by excessive swapping, but probably not. Any ideas what else could that be?
I'd try 1.30.2 or 1.31 but the OS/2 doesn't want to boot from 3.5" disk on this machine, only 5.25" works, and the only 5.25" release I could find is German.
