Hi, |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
My x86 (AMD Athlon 1200MHz) and ppc (G3 700MHz) are more or less the same |
| 19 |
speed. I installed Win95 on Bochs on FreeBSD/x86 and installation went |
| 20 |
fast and speed seemed acceptable. However, when I did the same thing on |
| 21 |
OS X several weeks/months later, it was quite slow installing Win95 and |
| 22 |
speed really not |
| 23 |
acceptable.. But I somehow could not really find my FreeBSD Bochs setup |
| 24 |
to really compare side by side. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
I remember seeing on the Bochs forums people trying out different |
| 27 |
compilation/configurations options for OS X/ppc and getting some |
| 28 |
improvements. |
