This is great.  I wish I had seen this years ago when I was doing intensive audio work with my A2000 and couldn't get enough speed out of my A2091.  Of course, I was having problems with the transfers to DMA RAM on my 68040 expansion board as well (the kind that vbak2091 can help with), so I'm not sure if your hack would remedy that.

The 040 compatibility problem is solved by upgrading to C= V7 ROMs or a Guru ROM. As far as getting more speed with this hack you will get more speed in an A2000 or possibly a Zorro BusBoard for small box Amiga's. But in the A3000 or A4000 you won't get more speed due to Super Busters bus arbitration and slower Zorro2 slave cycle bottlenecks. Super Buster is a DOWNGRADE for Zorro2 cards!


Well, I had both a 7.0 ROM and later a GURU ROM and never got great speeds.  But maybe I was doing something wrong.
