@pixie

this is an old 5y ago qemu version running on a PC not on a PI 4.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZJ42NPG8Qo
I will made test soon a new version of Qemu and if i will have time will made a new video about.

__
Note computational capability of a PI4 clocked at 1.8 ghz with Debian Sid 64bit is much more better and faster than X5000/40.

Ciao

The question here is was for ARM, doing a JIT is like doing a new implementation altogether (from what I gathered it seem it is now implemented), but since he talk about professionalism one should see exactly what 17 years in the making gave on arm... I have no doubt that qemu works better in the x86 platform, i have seen it running also on my computer, still I don't know if it is faster then WinUAE though. Will try to do some tests

WinUae is much more faster in 68k mode but not on PPC emulation where it use qemu TGC for emulate the ppc cpu.

this was my G5 Quad with fsuae + qemu core running amigaos3 and 4
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2ExCTPzEOk

Edit the PI 4 performances of qemu running without an overclock are the same of G5 quad. with overclock are better. will be curious on Pi5 when it will be available.

@tlosm

I get 81.8 FPS in 800x600 in 68k, I am having horrible glitches with MorphOS, still from one time I got it to run about 7 fps. And this is is the best optimized Qemu one can get, yet if you check EMU68 you get pretty much respectable values out there, and they're about to get a major gfx driver update so the gfx bottleneck will be even less of an issue. In the end how it is supposed that ARM to outperform this kind of values is ludicrous.


PS- I tested it on my Macbook Air M1, and while the glitches persist, I got a speedbump to 21FPS

I have sam460 AND rpi.
emu68 is four 4 times on my rpi slower than my sam460.
qemu is still faster up to 40% faster on my rpi than emu68.
devilutionX I may play on linux on my rpi.
Using AGA for graphics is simply stupid when RTG is avaible.
I don't need this.
Amiga games don't need anything more than 7 MHz.
remove original cpu to play amiga games on emulator.
no no no and no.

Qemu is faster running what? What do you run on both emu68 and qemu on your RPI? Why would someone compare AGA graphics, at all.

You do know that you have multiple online translators that allow to express yourself better then that word salad of yours, there's really no excuse, unless you don't to make sense on purpose

Yes. Everything ppcamiga1 states is highly subjective, full of confirmation bias, and drenched in the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Anything that challenges his major outlay in alternative computing (A1X1k), which in turn is a challenge to his very identity, is automatically bad.
In his mind, he sees himself as the rare purist capable of recogizing the brilliance of Power ISA, and it being the only hope against the onslaught of mass produced silicon from pretty much every other camp.
That's why he can't do basic math. Or rather when he does, 2 + 2 = 8 when it comes to PPC.

Again, post your benchmarks and be specific about RPi models.

For example,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvsswLemWdY
Diablo (DevilutionX 68K Amiga port) performance test on PiStorm32-Lite Emu68 RTG at stock clock speeds. Raspberry Pi 4B for the Amiga 1200 and the frame rate counter are shown.
1280x720 resolution at time stamp 15:06. This is pure CPU power since the Broadcom V P96 driver is incomplete. Michal Schulz has demonstrated an improved P96 driver in recent Amiga shows.

Sam460's AmigaOS4 SDL1.2 port results from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsOKIB95UHM
DevilutionX 1.4.1, fullscreen 1280x720 resolution results.

Deluxe Music 2 can run on WinUAE/AmigaOS 3.X/68K which uses PC's midi services e.g. Yamaha S-YXG50 VSTi plugin on a modern SoundBlaster XE-5 despite my two X670E motherboards having either TUF's Realtek S1220A or ROG SupremeFX 7.1 Surround Sound High Definition ALC4082 Audio CODECs.

I do have Yamaha DGX-640 with USB MIDI.

Deluxe Music 2 is just a retro Amiga 68K app example when I have modern Calkwalk 2022 and MuseScore 4 on Windows 11.

Deluxe Music 2 is mostly desktop music publishing which is MuseScore 4's target market.

I can purchase expensive motherboards when it has class-leading PCIe 5.0 performance e.g. ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E Hero. ASUS AM4/AM5 motherboards have ECC memory support, hence I turn my gaming PCs into workstation platforms at any time. I have looked at the Raptor Computing System's POWER9 Blackbird solution, but I rather spend my budget on the RTX 4090 card that can deliver class-leading raytracing performance. AMD's RX 7900 XTX'a Blender 3D (via Linux HIP) raytracing performance has improved but it's a class below RTX 4080 and RTX 4090.

@Hammer

you wrote usual crap as usually.
as usually pure bullshit about hardware that you don't own.
I own sam460 and rpi3.
My Sam460 is 5 times faster than emu68 on my rpi3.
I run quake in 320x240 8 bit.
emu68 makes 62 fps.
sam460 makes 321 fps.

And to be honest I use vampire as 68k ng.
but amiga games?
It is perversion to remove original cpu from Motorola
replace it with emulator and play amiga games.
I may consider buy yet another amiga 500 from Commodore but 68000 in it will stay forever.

___
sam460 makes 321 fps ???

much more than X5000/40


and much more compared the G4 1266 mhz of a pegasos2

Nonsensical? Emulators provided a window into the past in most cases. A snapshot in time at best.

It was only when new hardware projects appeared when things got moving again with the( Aros based) OS3 spinnoffs and AmigaOS3.2+.


The argument "we should use our own, overpriced and underperforming, hardware, because if we get better performance using emulation on the machine our potential users already own, they might be tempted to get even better performance from the native ports" is indeed non-sensical --- that temptation doesn't suddenly go away just because that hypothetical user paid $$$$ for custom hardware. Such a requirement just means there are a lot fewer potential users, seeing the massive hurdle required to even try your offering.

And as I alluded to, this exact argument was made by Hyperion 22 years ago. So the last 22 years are a pretty good case study of exactly how non-sensical that argument is.

@amigang

One thing I want to ask the devs, is would it be possible to make a dedicated Emulator GUI for just AmigaOS4 emulation under QEMU. QEMU is open source, so it be nice if all the settings, addon and little hacks where all pre-setup and ready to go, the user would just require a copy of AmigaOS4, my guess Pegasos2 version and how much hard drive space to give it. Just to make it a bit easier for us end users.

I mean I thank Rene Engel & Zoltan Balaton for this,
https://www.amiga-news.de/en/news/AN-2023-03-00113-EN.html
but would be nice to have it say as simple as WinUAE.

This is QuakeSpasm (mesa) on RasperryPi4 performances
First is the Arm second is the emulated X86 version inside the piOS

Image
it was running in 640x480 both version.
I m pretty sure the PI will able to run Quake PPC with Virtio GPU with a qemu amgaos with about 70/80 fps performances at 640x480.

Just for mention
Quake on PowerMac G5 Quad on Quadro GPU at 640x480 run at 636fps on OSX
Video

Here the MacMini i5 vs G5 Quad with Quake4
Video

Note this are really old video.

I saw that when I tried it on my M1. I wasn't expecting that. But it was about 3 times as "fast" on MorphOS, sure it's not only cpu being emulated, there's also the gfx card, but still, 7-21fps jump on a similar otherwise CPU AMD 5800X vs M1

Well one thing about your videos was they hadn't the amount of glitches mine have had. And they're quite 'dated', I was running it on the latest QEMU 8

Can't wait! Even because now I have subscribed!

Those are impressive speeds indeed, but I guess it has more to do with mesa acceleration, otherwise having such close ratio (0.75) would be crazy!
