The question may have been beaten to death but the answers surely haven't
been satisfactory. (except for this and Rasterman's.)
The only conclusion one can derives from all previous posts is:-
1. Everybody needs a VGA
2. VGA wont perform as smooth as it should on this CPU
3. We should have faster CPU (which in turn still would not matter since the
bus speed is limited)

I have my doubts cleared now. Thanks.

Next.

Please... this topic has been beaten to death on the lists during the last 
couple of weeks.

Briefly: If it's just about putting pixels on the screen, then what we win 
with the faster rendering speed is lost due to the smaller bus bandwith to 
the GPU. Plus, SD transfers go the same path, hence sharing bandwith with 
transferring pixel commands to the GPU.

Number crunching though is almost twice as fast on the 02.

Can we talk about something else now?

I cannot really argue now that you say you have both and see it upfront :(
It would be really nice if you can briefly educate as to why this is
happening. The question is: What is making it 'not possible' to use the
extra CPU speed in 02. Is it a bus limitation? Is it a software bottleneck?

 Good job for the video and hey openmoko people, GOOD JOB for the ASU,
 it's really nice, quite slow on the neo 1973 but it can be optimized i
 think and the FreeRunner should be faster.

Re: Illume / ASU on GTA01 - Video

2008-06-06 Thread thomasg
Well, it isn't that slow (on GTA01).
In fact it feels really responsive, just the launcher shows some laggs. I
guess it should be able to fix this by more agressive caching, as the
problem seems to be, that the neo loads the images/icons pretty slow.
The other problem is the starting of other apps - but I hope this also can
be improved a bit.

At least the new GUI is way more responsive as the old GTK one and more
fancy.

don't be so sure about that! :)

Any reason why you have doubts? To a common person, the performance b/w 1973
& FreeRunner should be BIG if not HUGE. (i'm only asking)

Good job for the video and hey openmoko people, GOOD JOB for the ASU, 
it's really nice, quite slow on the neo 1973 but it can be optimized i 
think and the FreeRunner should be faster.

I'm s happy, please turn the mass production switch on and let us 
keep the freerunner in our hands :D

Cya!!
