Thanks! That did it! Indeed, the PHYSICAL_PAGES parameter
had been set to 32768 in some previous AUTOGEN. Since I did not
want to use feedback, but just to change that single parameter,
I edited the SYS$SYSTEM:SETPARAMS.DAT file to
set parameter PHYSICALPAGES 65536 and
invoked _at_SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN SETPARAMS REBOOT NOFEEDBACK.
The machine feels faster indeed.
Best regards,
carlos.
