porting to amiga
« on: February 27, 2004, 06:44:32 AM »
Hello!

I'm interested in porting SETI client on amiga (classic one). Would it be possible to have a such in the near future, what do they say?
I have some experience in optimizing code for different 68k's (mainly 68060), so you can rely on me when helping official SETI team porting client.
For classic amiga hard asm optimizing of innerloops is absolutely necessary here, because all 68ks around are very, very slow for such a task. Even Pentium100 spends days and days calculating ONE chunk of data, God knows what will happen on amiga...

Please anwser to lvd#dgap,mipt,ru ...

Bye...

@whabang
Formally P100 is faster. Both 060 and pentium have two pipelines, can execute 2 instructions per cycle. Of course lack of registers in pentium makes it some slower, but not too much...
