Congrats. I remember it to be pretty satisfying once things start to work ;) I probably never forget the joy of the Minerva logo appearing on screen or the first blinking cursor :-) > I mention the bogomips prog, because I used that to test the speeds of > SMSQmulator. > > On the slowest machine around here (a 3 year old laptop), I get : > Smsqemulator 6.61 bogomips > but > QPC 50.06 bogomips - so SMSQmulator is about 8-10 times slower than QPC, > and it'll probably be even slower than that when heavy screen redrawing > is involved. That is somewhat slow, and I actually mean the QPC figure. Do you run QPC under Linux? In that case Wine might be slowing things down. I got a solid 183 bogomips here on my laptop that is slightly over a year old and is even just an i5. It shouldn't be three times as fast as your machine. > There are at least two known bugs.
