@Geennaam

Thank you for the information ! (seems like truckload of it)
I had understood that I was much simpler. Better thisway.


And now I understand why 4.1.1 is said to bring a lot of speed improvements for SAM.

At the following link you'll find a version of E-UAE recompiled for Sam I did some days ago.
Don't know if it'll bring more performance on your setup, or not, but you may give it at try.

I dont seem to be able to connect to your website to download your version, the dns lookup would seem to be working but your address is unreachable for me

This is absolutly faster then any .29 version I saw 'til today. Your SAM version combined with Cyborgs GUI would be great. It feels smoother and is - at a quick glance - nearly usable. I.e. it loads Workbench icons faster than my original OS3.9 68K system with a 030 ...

Wow. 24 DSP instructions. Any PPC assembler guru?

The little Sam can unchain more hidden power!

OK.

why don't we create a bounty for include JIT emulation ? i think that the key for UAE is that.. if you see how fast petunia can emulate 68k instructions, i bet that it will be enough to emulate a basic amiga 500/1200 and even some 030 cpu with fpu

Your v0.8.29-sam UAE appears to use SDL, which may explain why it is not QUITE as fast as v0.8.28. Is it possible to recompile it with native Amiga Gfx support, instead of SDL?

Yeah!

Application that can get benefits of this instructions:

Timberwolf
Cairo
Mplayer
OWB
Sld library
MiniGL - Hans?
TuneNet and other players
AmiDark Engine
MP3 encoders/decoders
Mame

others?

@AmigaBlitter

Any thought?

On the OS side the OS 4.1 api could be optimized to use this DSP instructions?

@AmigaBlitter
Since Massimiliano Tretene is deeply involved with the Sam version of OS4.1.1 I would expect the new update to make use of the IBM library where possible

On a side note, I tried the Sam-Recompile and noticed slightly smoother scrolling but inferior audio handling (in complex games such as Turrican II, Rainbow Islands worked perfectly instead) HOWEVER? it would seem I have the old SDL lib.
Will try again with the newer one...

Yeah!

OS4 team? Could someone give us some info about this?
Just what is possible to say.

@Thread
Final Verdict:as ChrisH said, the older 0.8.28 is the faster one no matter what.
Probably the Sam re-compile speeds up the newer SDL version, but the use of SDL kills any advantage. What we need is a "Sam-Recompile" of the 0.8.28 (a re-compile that would make use of the IBM library).


@m3x
Would it be possible to re-compile that older version?

@all

Anyone seen SDK material for SAM's lattice chip anywhere?

(we need SAM HW programmers guide!)
