cycles=20000 or if your comp cant handle it cycles=13000

I have a 2 gig computer here and I never go higher than 10000 cycles. Only one game asked for more so far and it was really a big game (C&C).

IMHO 20000 is way too much, most user will overcycle their DOSBox if they go so high...

So... we can only estimate the number of cycles? Can we not determine it precisely?

No, we can't, because it vary from computer to computer. It depends on speed of computer, how much ads you have, etc...

Is there a way to set the graphics conversion to a higher scale than x2 in windowed mode? I'm running my desktop in 1280x1024 so something like x3 would be nice, yet all I can see in Boxer (the frontend I'm using) is x2 and that hardware scaling which doesn't work for me. Is there some setting in DosBox itself to change that?

If hwscale doesn't work for You, try modifying "scaler" value.
