I have a Crusoe-based portable, and although adequate, it's performance is underwhelming. But I was thinking that it might be able to really kick ass running .NET apps if the VM were to be written in native Crusoe instructions, rather than having to emulate the x86 instructions. I suppose it would still spend a lot of time emulating (executing OS code), but for CPU-intensive apps, it could make a big difference.
Anyone know if this is feasible, or if Transmeta and/or Microsoft have been exploring this possibility? Brad Aisa [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can read messages from the DOTNET archive, unsubscribe from DOTNET, or subscribe to other DevelopMentor lists at http://discuss.develop.com.
