Yes it's really for l33tness, I don't expect to have anything daily usable. Still with some features disabled to limit mem usage it could possibly be demoable. Due to SMP being quasi non-existent (even netBSD doesn't support SMP on 68k) we can use shortcuts (nop spinlocks) It's still a good test case for post-R1 performance optimizations :)) Also, there were some accelerator cards for those beasts, like the CT60 for Falcon (060 @100MHz). Plus on a Falcon the DSP should be able to replace the system mixer, and possibly an mp3 decoder node (there are DSP mp3 players on MiNT). François.
