In addition, the CPU load average climbs rapidly, the CPU is 100% used,
all by dosbox, and the power consumption is at a maximum.  Batteries
will not last very long like this.  It is not a good solution.  All the
power seems to be going to flashing a cursor in the emulation.

I advise against use of dosbox on battery power.

Memory usage 37Mb resident, 69Mb virtual.

All this for an operating system that needs 640k?  I don't understand.
