As I mentioned before: The CPU is less important than the amount of
memory available. A 486/66 equipped with 32 MB of RAM will certainly 
do a better job than a P90 with 16 MB.

I don't know how big your programs are and how much of C++ you use, 
but for large projects RAM is very important. 

Ever tried to compile and link YACL with emx?

Tschuess,
