New UAE-JIT Version for Linux
On October 14th, Bernie Meyer has released a new version of his JIT
compiler for UAE running on Linux. While the stock UAE only interprets
the 68k Amiga software, the JIT compiler converts the programs to x86
code at runtime, making them run significantly faster. This version,
code-named "Everton", contains the following changes:
- FPU support.
- SIGSEGV handler for direct memory access. This option offers the
best performance and is highly recommended.
- Optimisations and according speed increase
- better timing
- many improvements in the source code
The title link leads to several archives for Linux to download,
including source code.
