That's kinda what I had in mind. I don't want too sophisticated of a scoreboard, because I'd like most scheduling static, but if we do it right, we can allow some things to complete out of order so as to reduce the impact of read latency. Also, if we do the fifo thing I mentioned, it'll become a non-issue for many algorithms. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
