Now those two are in the readme.

As of some good start for speed try (0.65 dosbox, x86 cpu)
core=dynamic and cycles=auto in dosbox.conf

For fullscreen see the special keys section of the readme.

Launch DOSBox. Inside DOSBox, give this exact command:

config -writeconf dosbox.conf

Now quit DOSBox again. Open the newly created file dosbox.conf with a text editor (such as Notepad) and change it to your heart's content. The explanations are mostly within the file itself.

The changes will take effect the next time you start DOSBox.

Actually you didn't read far enough, in the section about special keys
it is mentioned that alt-enter switches between fullscreen and windowed.
