WHDLoad game question - performance

[blakespot]

I see indications in the ReadMe's accompanying some WHDLoad profiles that delay loops were inserted to preserve timing on faster-than-68000 machines. Some games are synced to vblank, and can benefit from extra CPU horsepower, without going "too fast" - they just get "smoother" at the same core rate of action.

Do all WHDLoad games run, say on a 030 50, at the exact speed as the 68000, or do some get a benefit / extra smoothness? If it's the former, how are the varying speeds of accelerators accounted for? Are folks running a little benchmark up front and then using the result as a variable for the delay loop multiplier?

I have an A2000 '020, btw.

Thanks.

Boosting your Amiga with an accelerator and lots of RAM is well cool, but for just playing WHDLoad games it's money in the lake.

Well, I've got an A2000 w/ a 68020. 2MB 32-bit FAST + 4MB 16-bit FAST + 1MB CHIP. Not too much $$ spent on acceleration, and I guess a decent amount of RAM.
