If you want an Amiga..buy it...if you want Win..buy a pc...if you want a Mac...buy it....

WinUAE is nice...but is really an emulator...in my opinion is good only for .adf games...
Bye ;)

At ~2Ghz AMD processor*, Deluxe Music 2, Cinema 4D R4.2 runs pretty good on WinUAE-JIT.

For that matter WinUAE 2.8.27 runs dog slow on my 64bit laptop too, (SNIP)

Probably issues with WinUAE**'s CPU idle detection system...

**0.8.21.R4 introduces "CPU idle patch (no more 100% CPU usage)" feature (I rather have 100 percent override). Sometimes, this detection system causes WinUAE’s CPU percentage values to stay low(e.g. <10 percent)(even IF one do something within emulate ecosystem) thus, slowing down emulation speed.

I have experience this issue with 0.8.27 and 0.9.9Beta1 (occasionally, but rare). I use WinUAE 8.21.R3 as reference.

@DonnyEMU

In an X64 ecosystem you have 16 general purpose registers for the OS to play with. Thus it may entail some increase in efficiencies e.g. Less ISA load/store activity.
(even if you factor in micro-architecture improvements such as register wheel and extra micro-code registers).
The post-RISC core would be able reach near its full potential due to some clean-up in the ISA.
