powerpc : Comment 25 of 26 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Crumb // AAT on 30-Sep-2004 10:37 GMT | In reply to Comment 18 (JoannaK): AFAIK It only marks as not cacheable the zone where the data is going to be transfered, not the entire cache.
Dual cores/CPUs are useless for AmigaOS alike OSes anyway... at the moment it's better to use a damn fast single core cpu with a lot of cache. |
