The Borland Pascal IDE itself does not release CPU cycles, so that may be giving you a high CPU-load. You should use blocking I/O calls while waiting for input, then your app will not use any CPU time. Since you can call OS/2 functions, this shouldn't be hard to do. Don't use WHILE NOT KeyPressed DO style programming in a multitasking OS!! (Not even if your program is a DOS-app running in a DOS-Window!)
