Maemo already uses softfloat and it's still slow.
Right, FPUs exist for reason. If softfloat was perfect they wouldn't. You still take a hit, just not as much as hardfloat. Also I dont think its just FP causing a slowdown though this appears to be particularly nasty in pango-cairo GTK+ usage ( see below referenced thread ).
Don't count on it, Carl has had a long history of playing with arm based machines, even before cairo was started. But we'll see, but I won't have high hopes, even if I *really* like cairo.
There is some movement on the GNOME performance list - See the 'Floating point in pango' thread. Archives are broke so see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.performance/ Please get involved if you think you could help. -- Matthew _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
