Thanks for the swift reply. I'd be grateful though if you elaborated a bit. If the cycles=max function does work, then it does return some estimate (or exact value maybe?) from the actual hardware to DOSBox to emulate a certain amount of cycles accordingly, right? Or maybe there are rough estimates …

I've been wondering, is there any reliable way of inferring the maximum amount of CPU cycles DOSBox can emulate on a particular machine from its CPU clock rate? I'm using cycles=max since this feature had been first introduced, but I've never given any thought to how many cycles this actually is on …

Hello! While I generally don't use frontends, I find your project very appealing, especially for the bundled games feature, which IMO must be helping a lot to bring DOS games to a wider audience (taking into account that not everyone is willing to mess around with DOSBox settings on their own). …
