 Replying to [comment:2 domiman@…]:
 > The problem is that even when the crash is fixed, core dynamic on 64bit
 is way less efficient and is at about only 20-50% of the speed than on
 32bit. And this likely won't change since this is just the nature of the
 64bit dynamic core :(

 built is at only 1% speed of the 32bit built :)  - I volunteered for the
 dosbox defs to find the culprit but haven't had time to do so) [[br]]

 is the reason I'd never recommend a 64bit built of Dosbox.

 I see. I was going on your comment above:

 > This is resolved in SVN of Dosbox and thus should be working whenever a
 new version is out.

 You didn't mention that it was also slower and that this was not yet
 fixed. Given this new information, I now agree disabling the 64-bit build
 would be a good idea. However, it does not build 32-bit for me. My log is
 attached.
