I can't remember where it was, but I have read somewhere that the memory access speed on the BPPC is quite slow compaired to other blizzard cards.

hmm well, according to SysInfo, my BPPC is faster than an A4000/040 and definatly faster than the 1230IV. I also found that if you don't use the display, and so no chip RAM access, that the 040 on the BPPC is definatly faster than the 1230IV. This I have found on my little prime number program which I used to compare different configurations. It doesn't display each prime number which an older version did and is 10 seconds faster on the BPPC040 than the 1230IV
