Summary: Caterpillar good? 50% overhead

Caterpil/cmd is good? I took one look at it and never played it since

TRS-Xenix is slow on the model 16 because it has 50% overhead
						 ===
This was determined by a cpu hog counting from 1 to 200000, and 'time a.out'
yeilding 50% utilization.
This was in system maintenence mode with no other processes running
(except for 0, 1, and my shell)
