The distributions on

http://68.150.97.212/simh/

have been updated

The new files are called pdp11-t-001.zip and vax-t-001.zip
Throttlev2.zip replaces all previous versions of throttle

Changes
  The DN-11 driver has been changed to set the performance control
variable to zero (full throttle) when a device reset occurs.  This happens 
when the simulator starts to boot the cpu and during the VMS boot cycle. 
 The only effect that this has is when a shutdown reboot is requested, and 
the CPU has not been throttled up prior to the shutdown completing.

The VAX and PDP-11 simulator names have been changed to:

VAX-T-001  (T for throttled and 001 for the version number).

Ther version number for THROTTLE has been reset to V2.  RESETTHROTTLE and 
READTHROTTLE have been deleted from the distribution.  The throttle program 
now reads a system logical to set the minimum throttle value and writes a 
system value to indicate the current throttle value being used.  The min 
value is read every program iteration (2 seconds) and the current value is 
written every iteration.

It seems solid..  Problem reports, comments and change suggestions to:
