-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am curious about the way instruction emulation happens in the virtual system and way that it could be faster.
Is each instruction translated and emulated one at a time? This would be the easiest for the developers. My idea is that if the software was to keep a list of the most commonly emulated sequences and when one of these common sequences of instructions is called rather then emulate them one at a time the system would recall the emulation that was previously translated. This would use more memory but I think it could drasticly increase the speed of the emulation because of the constant amount of calls that M$ OS's repeatedly make to the same instructions. Having no knowledge of how the software currently works, I could be totally wrong here. I would like to know a little more about it and if my idea has merit. - -- Roy Souther <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> www.SiliconTao.com Linux, overcomming barriers, removing walls of confinement and smashing windows. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAjx/pCYACgkQCbnxcmEBt43O8ACgu09L7GSKXZVHql4BE04bO9in D3AAn3eQVhgP8eA1k68zEi6oi1ceivRk =4AQM -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
