Until roughly 2011, VMS was developed in the MRO and ZKO facilites of the
old DEC empire.   It was transitions to the India group in that time.   V8.4
was the first release that was, more or less, handled outside traditional
DEC.

Anyone benchmarked versions of VMS? I thought that pre-64 bit might run =
better on an old VAX.

Doubtful.
