KK, you are absolutely right, thanks for pointing this out. I meant you
should actually double-click on Rebel.exe under Windows 95 - with 144 MB
RAM it runs with 60 MB hash tables without speed penalty. If you have
e.g. 80 MB RAM, you should try the Rebel64.pif setting which gives you
28 MB hash tables (also not bad).

With 48 MB RAM (the biggest <80MB configuration for Toshiba Tecras)
there's no speed issue at all, neither under plain DOS nor under Windows
95.
