Some benches [eng]

Here is some benchmarks now that a lot of work has been done...

The W3D_AvengerLEMU.library v4.3 final is available since a few days et brings a welcome speedup for us fan of the Classics...

However, there is little change for now :

• correct _EndMarker
• sections removed
• all functions aligned with cnop 0,4
• all jsr => bsr.w/.l
• removed many unused trigos routines
• a lot of absolute addresses turned PC relative
• _FunctionTable now relative (.w)
• library now 100% PC relative
• all fpCR replaced with fintrz for the 060
• misc Fpu optimizations
• many useless code removed
• all nop removed
• _ChangesSetupMode optimized
• LEMU_CheckIdle optimized
• LEMU_WaitIdle optimized
• 56 072 bytes saved

I changed some settings on Ma Config 1 including the TLFSMem 1.9 patch which brings a better fastram management, especially with the only 64 MB of Apollo 1260...

I still use Ma Config 1 with the following softwares and Warp3D v4.2 :

• GLBlitzQuake : 19.4 fps ("Timedemo demo1")
• Quake2 : 12.6 fps ("Timedemo 1" and "map demo1.dm2")
• StarShipW3D v1.1 : 86 fps
• CavalleryW3D v1.1 : 31 fps
• Cow3D v5.0 : 6 fps

Now only the changed v4.3 :

• GLBlitzQuake : 21.5 fps
• Quake2 : 14.5 fps
• StarShipW3D v1.1 : 327 fps
• CavalleryW3D v1.1 : 63 fps
• Cow3D v5.0 : 14 fps

Hum, 327 fps yet quite constant :

If you knew all the time and all the knowledge it takes to achieve all that...

There's still a lot of work to obtain the target of at least 25 fps with GLBLitzQuake ...
