This module for AIBB 6.5 has been done with an Apollo 1240/40MHz with SCSI
module, 8 Meg FAST RAM, and (VERY IMPORTANT) FastExec installed.
Compare it with the original Apollo_1240_40.lha archive uploaded by
Thorsten.Schneidert-online.de. Because of a "bug" of the Amiga 1200, the
Supervisor Stack Pointer (SSP) remains in CHIP memory even when you have
true FAST memory. Because the FPU of the 68040 uses A LOT the Supervisor
Stack Pointer, the FPU intensive programs run a lot slower on the Apollo
1240 than they could.
With FastExec installed (util/batch/Fast_Exec.lha by Harry Sintonen) the
BeachBall test runs 3 times faster, and FPU intensive programs (like
Lightwave and Imagine) run between 2 and 3 times faster. Quite nice just
for a 960 bytes patch. In fact, compared to the actual speed in the Apollo
1240, Lightwave runs only 30% faster in the Blizzard 1260 with
Cyberpatcher installed (and this is TRUE, since I had to make a
comparative report between M-TEC 1230/42MHz, Apollo 1240/40MHz, Apollo
1260/50MHz and Blizzard 1260/50MHz for my job :-)
