This program was written due to the lack of such a program
on the Amiga. It was written using HiSoft Devpac Assembler.
I have placed this program on the public domain so that it
can be used by everyone. I hereby give permission for
commercial publishers to distribute this program in any way
they see fit (but remember who wrote it, credits please).
CONDITIONS None. Except this doc file and the icons must
---------- accompany the program.
The program hunks have been written to use Public memory so
it will load into fast ram if its available. The program
requires about 100k of chip memory and 36k of fast memory in
order to run.
SPEED COMPARISONS
-----------------
The A1000 CHIP ONLY comparison is against a PAL A1000 totally
unexpanded. This program has a 3 bitplane screen open, this
shows how much the processor slows when running a program in
chip memory while having to contend with Agnus working overtime.
The A1000 EXTRA RAM comparison is against a PAL A1000 with
SLOW RAM addressed at $f80000. The processor returns to
normal speed even though the 3 bit plan screen is open.
This can show the difference in speed between slow ram and
zero wait state memory boards. Our experience shows that
it only makes a difference of around 0.01 or one hundredth.
The A2620 comparison is against a standard B2000 with a A2620
card.
The GVP A3001 comparison is against a B2000 with a GVP A3001
acellerator card, with all caches and bursts on. The board
also contained 4 megs of 32 bit wide ram.
FREE MEMORY
-----------
This shows the amount of free memory as if the program is not
running so it is not accurate to the byte, but is a very good
indication of the free pool.
Please let me know if you have any problems or bugs with this
program.
NOTE:
If you have mounted a special device (ie. FFS floppy) it will
be seen and counted as a hard disk.
A Super Agnus jumpered as a Fat Agnus will be seen as a Fat
Agnus (8371).
2000/500 CLOCK only looks for the standard 2000 or 500 Hardare
clock. It does not look for the mutitlude of different clocks
that were available for the 1000.
THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO ADD
--------------------------
1. Ability to check Amiga model ** is it possible ?????
2. Your ideas
Any suggestions preferably in assembler but I can translate
C if I have to, but it is such a pathetic language (sorry C
programmers but Assembler is so much nicer).
Happy Computing
