Hi, As Wolfgang suggested I used Thierry Godefroys QL program to measure bogomips under SMSQE. RPi2 "native noobs boot" gets ~38.40 bogomips under linux (xterm - and cat /proc/cpuinfo) which is roughly what you got.
When I asked about java I am aware of 2 versions or java on RPi, there is the freeware java v7 which it seems you have installed as I have and there is oracle java v7 which I read somewhere handled floating point numbers better. I will try it later. I dont think java v8 is on RPi yet. Over clocking RPi 2 this afternoon using the Xwindows menu options to a processor speed of 1Ghz increased the bogomips under SMSQE to 2.76 with a 1024x768 window and 2.81 with a window of 512x256. All of this is in 16 bit colours. Also there are the Xwindows apps over heads that may make a difference to the speed of SMSQmulator. I plan to look in to the possibility of configuring a minimal boot of Xwindows with only SMSQmulator running to get a bit more speed, If you have done this already let me know how as I am at the stage of reading up about how to do this in linux. Wolfgang even at ~2.53 bogomips it is still useful, bit like a Goldcard running SMSQE. The RPi B without over clocking gets only 2 bogomips under linux and thats without Xwindows running in the background, no wonder SMSQmulator is not worth the effort with RPi B. Even anything complicated like internet browsing with a basic RPi B is like watching a game load from tape to a 48k Spectrum.

Thanks. Done. I run it several times, and got 2.61, 2.60, 2.61, 2.61... -- Marcos Cruz http://programandala.net _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List
