Some senseless babbling from Holger Granholm to Mike Ruskai

 MR>Memory is the most important thing, by far (just going from 20MB to
 MR>32MB made a big difference on the 486).  

 HG> Just going from 16 to 32 Mb here was a big disappointment.

 HG> I also increased the L2 cache from 128 kb to 256 kb. While that made

 HG> long with 32 Mb as compared to 16 Mb.

The most likely reason I can see for that is that your motherboard will 
only cache 16MB worth of RAM.  OS/2 used memory from the top down, so 
putting 32MB in would make OS/2 use 16MB worth of uncached RAM first.
