New benchmarks show an impressive speedup!
http://amigos.amiga.hu/rachy/petunia.html
Also Ben Hermans commented this on ANN:
"On a 600 Mhz G3 with on-die L2 cache and a 133 FSB, you can expect much more than a 150-200 Mhz 060. I would consider a 300 Mhz 060 to be the absolute minimum."
The current benchmarks of Petunia are being held back by several factors even on the current PPC cards:
1. The 68K is still stealing cycles from the PPC just by being "awake". If you put it to sleep completely, this results in substantial performance gains.
2. Dual CPU architecture with context-switches and cache-flushes.
3. WarpOS not Exec SG is used.
All in all I expect the emulator to reach at least 060/50 performance even on the lowest (160 MHz) BlizzardPPC

300mhz 060 on a g3, sweet dudes
060/50 on 1 603e even better for me :)

Looking good! Looking good!!

It's looking REAL GOOD! :-o
The A1 will be no slouch! CS-PPC and BlizzardPPC owners also will get a speedup.
Keep the good news coming boys!
:-D

Yeppp It seems like all the money put into CSPPC and Blizzard PPC was not wasted at all :)
And the amigaOne just seems better and better each day....
I wan't one, need one.... :-D :-D :-D

Wow, that's really impressive...and it means current hardware
will also benefit massively from OS4. I must admit, after
trying MorphOS on my 603e/200 I didn't have by far this high
expectations for emulation performance. Well done to
the Petunia team!

It seems my 603e will finally get usefull! After all these years of being an expensive heating system =)

I think the Petunia Team is one man. IIRC.

The MorphOS-Beta doesn't use JIT (MOS1.0 will) so it's like
comparing an old UAE version to UAE-JIT or even Amithlon.
