What exactly do you need for Amiga XL??

WinUAE is REALLY slow on this 500mhz AMD i got. I have GeForce 2 MX 400 AGP, and 256mb of ram, but its still really slow...

Then I'm afraid AmigaXL would be even slower. The speed scale, from slowest to fastest, is this:

Fellow (or WinFellow)
AmigaXL
WinUAE-JIT
Amithlon

I really am fascinated by those who say WinUAE is faster than XL?? I can count the icons as they load into WB, whereas in XL the sys partition loads all the icons "splat" at once.

I can publish benchmark results obtained on the same hardware if you like, as well as give you technical reasons why WinUAE is faster, and why Amithlon is faster still.

The thing about WinUAE is that it supports lots and lots of configurations, and it is easy to end up with a sub-optimal environment. Once you've set it up properly, WinUAE is faster than AmigaXL.
