Tests with Tandy 6000, Type 4 Controller, 1MB RAM, Xenix 3.2 Set IL is the interleave I specify in the .cfg file and the same number I provide the diskutil format utility. Time is the time in seconds it takes to format 5 cylinders of a 1024 cy/8 hd dsk Log IL is the interleave I see being used in the DREM log file Set IL Time (5 cyl) Drem IL 1 38.2 1 2 27.6 9 3 17.3 6 4 49.8 13 5 40.78 7 6 29.76 3 7 19.40 5 8 31.53 15 9 43.16 2 10 32.4 12 11 22.82 14 12 34.5 10 13 45.7 4 14 34.9 11 15 25.5 8 16 33.7 16 Drem IL 6 is proving to be unreliable. Formats will stall at track 7. Drem IL 5 provides the best performance/reliability so far.
