When I play WC2 under OS/2, I get these huge pauses during the game.  I
get the same pauses under DOS, but they are much shorter.

Any ideas about either stopping these pauses all together, or perhaps any
DOS settings to make things run faster?

I'm using all the standard OS/2 game ones (HW_TIMER, INT_DURING_IO, etc).
Perhaps more DPMI memory?  I've configured it for 8.
