Hmm, I'd think a HAM8 fade on AGA would be same speed or faster than a HAM6-fade on OCS (both lowres). HAM6 on OCS: ~40,000 chipmem slots per frame free for blitter/copper/cpu if only display dma is active, HAM8 on AGA (FMODE=3): ~60,000 slots free. HAM6 needs to fade 4 planes, HAM8 6 planes - so roughly 10k slots per frame and plane available for both. If you have additional audio/copper dma OCS is more affected because it leaves a smaller percentage of available slots.
Yep, that's correct. I have no idea why I wrote more MA slots taken. More to process, more slots free, HAM8 will be roughly the same speed on AGA as the HAM6 example on OCS.
