speed up Winuae

Gaula92 · 01 April 2009, 12:34

I start this thread as a method to ask about some aspects on the host-side of Amiga emulation using WinUAE.
For most of you, it will be somewhat pointless because you'll be using post-PIII machines, but for us Notebook Amiga lovers it should be usefull.
My first question is about that "cpu idle setting" Toni mentioned in the Public Betas thread: where is that setting?
how does it affect Winuae's CPU usage measurement?

Thanks!

I'm not sure about the impact of that setting on 'normal' emulation (only use it for some high end AGA demos), but it surely is worth a try

Ok, thanks, CyberDruid! I will try.
Btw, would a 400 to 533mhz memory speed improvement help with winuae? Is 133Mhz in memory speed that important/noticeable?

533MHz memory on a PIII?

no, hahaha! But an Atom machine without out-of-order execution and small cache runs almos the same as a PIII. I said PIII for comparision purposes.
