Mike,
do you have any experience using UPX (executable file compressor) on
your programs? I'm wondering if
1) programs still load properly for you on 8086
2) smaller disksize + in-memory-decryption faster than loading entire file.
I'm pretty sure the compression program itself is 386+ or 586+,
but compressed executables should be 8086+ if used with proper options.
(upx.sf.net ) , upx --best --8086 c:\mtcp\*.exe

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
