Hi, Maurits van de Kamp a écrit:
MiNT itself hardly reduces speed or memory. If you just use mintnp.prg and skip the init suite and stick to the rom aes (comment out the INIT= line in mint.cnf and put in "GEM=path/to/execgem"), the speed difference is neglectable and the ram usage is something like 200-400K IIRC. Still
I would add that if you spent some more Kb for a small disk cache, MiNT is likely to boost your system !
Try deleting a folder with, say, 1000 small files under TOS. Then do the same under the system described by Maurits with a small disk cache (100 ko should be enough for this). The speed boost is likely to be some thousands per cent...
And even without disk cache, FreeMiNT is faster than TOS. The only real problem is the compatibilty with old/badly written/unsupported softwares.
