Big restriction in AmigaOS for UserCopper lists ?

One small aside.

Shouldn't the copperlist be allocated with MEMF_CHIP ram rather than just any old MEMF_PUBLIC?

Ha. I've noticed that also. :-D
So, :rtfm: - RKRM

It looks like this is only for preparation of User Copper List, which is never executed by itself, but is being merged with the other Copper Lists into One Big Ugly Copper List and that one is finally executed, so only that one has to be in CHIP.

Now Piru says I'm right.
Thank you, thank you..
APPLAUSE!

Yours forever.

I don't quite understand why don't you want to 'bang the hardware'.

Jose! Don't do it! Don't use the Dark Side of the Force! :-D

But really, I think it won't be any faster. After copper lists are merged it is just executed by copper which doesn't know if it was system-friendly copper list or hardware banged...

That's just the way I see it.
