I agree,
The weak part is the emulation of a graphics card suitable for 4.1
which makes it particularly fast is compatible with other functions.
Difficult thing to implement I guess.

The qemu engine for WinUAE actually works fine although it could be improved, but it works.

But the real turning point would be the support for graphics acceleration.
But like I said it's the hardest part for Toni. (Such a pity).
Certainly it is not easy to emulate a graphics card like ATI and it is understandable.

My point of view would be the inclusion of external Plugins but this would probably not respect what is the basic philosophy of WinUAE (which I respect).

But it is clear that attempts could be made at least to see what happens.
On the other hand already today winUAE does not emulate a real Amiga machine see JIT etc.
while remaining in its initial philosophy no one uses WinUAE as if it were real hardware obviously everyone inserts the speeds that can be adopted to make AmigaOS as fast as possible compared to the real real machine.

Here you can see AmigaOS 4.1 FE (WinUAE)
Which manages to handle two videos at the same time on Youtube
without the slightest effort.

Thanks to external programs,

If you try to do it with the current emulation it's impossible to do.

What I'd like to know is whether such a solution regarding "plugins" would be possible in the future.
