Amithlon question

[Wayne]

Amigamania,

there are some myths about amithlon:

amithlon is not a good amiga emulator
cause you will fell bored quicly using bored workbench applications out of date
even is very hard to configure and the installation is only for experts causing several headaches

also amithlon is not faster than winuae like some idiots says here,for example I tested amithlon VS winuae 0.827 and winuae WINS or is a draw
however amithlon is faster than lastest winuae version 1.3 which is very slow dunno why..I don't care about that cause always I use winuae 0.827

anyways...maybe amithlon could be a good project if anyone intelligent make a custom chip emulation there but now is an obsolete and bored and discontinued beta project which not offer better emulation than winuae on any side

Pierre,

I have made some experiments using Lame 3.86 long time ago
and I will include test results from my memory cause I haven't installed amithlon right now

I have only tested 68k speed and not used amiga benchmarks like sysinfo or sysspeed cause they are inacurate

so here are my result using Lame 3.86 converting a  wav file of aprox 4 minits length to mp3 using dafault lame options on an athlon xp 2400 2.0ghz  ..  1 year or 1.5 ago

winuae 0.827 : 1.40 min
amithlon     : 1.41  
winuae 1.0   : 1.57

the diference betewen amithlon and a faster winuae release was only 1 second so I think is a draw

nicholas,

I never told that Bernie is an idiot
well maybe yes I don't know him

I have made my own experiments ...check up
my results using Lame
or at least make your own experiments and post your results
and we can talk about that
but
believe it or not
The ultra speed of amithlon is a myth


Motorollin,

you can download amithlon using Emule or any program that join edonkey servers
there are some amithlon isos that some ppl share and you can try it
and don't worry about legality issues cause amithlon is a discontinued project


bye, Laser

rdolores,

amithlon twice faster than winuae?

don't be stupid


here are your stupid errors:

1:benchmarks are inacurate old a not designed for emulators

do something serious like I did crunching a wave file to
mp3 using Lame
check like I did upstairs and check my results

2:Have you disabled sound on winuae before make a test?

I think you forgot that because you are a newbie

you must disable sound on winuae cause winuae is wasting cpu time on paula emulation
REMEMBER THAT AMITHLON HAVEN'T PAULA EMULATION
if you don't disable the sound on winuae  amithlon start the competition with advantage

3:like I told upstair there are faster versions of winuae
and you have tested the slowest winuae 1.3
make a new test using 0.827


bye little boy

pixie,

you are a novel like rdolores
and some times I use that bad words cause novel ppl make confusion,write idiots things and spread lies

btw,Im trying to solve the speed problem of new winuae versions with Toni willen the author of winuae

check what says Toni about my speed tests:



btw, thanks for testing with something that makes sense instead of just running some obsolete speed test program  Can you do the same test with 0.9.x and older 1.2 versions?
