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