[xg917]

veskgar u literally took those words rite out of my mouth

dam he doesnt talk about the media engine but daaaammn... 10-15% is a lot for a week of work

[IM back!]

15%!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and the ME?????????

[xg917]

most likely wally told me that he thinks the Media Engine itself would give a 50% speed tops

[mike03$$$]

[Buddy4point0]

15% speed boost! and dynaric improvments! i cant wait!!

the media engjne is not going to give daedalus that much of a speedup, from what ive seen and heard itll be luck to get an extra 20%, but 50 would be nice

[mcdougall57]

keep up the good work!!! i think that we will lose these speedups when sound is implemented though and what the hell is a media engine

[xg917]

im still so hapy about these improvements though

edit: i dont think he takes donations

[Chameleon]

yeah im happy with the results too

the media engine is the psp's second processor, but is often not used in homebrew because its very difficult to administer, due to having to re-write alot of code (and this would be even more complex with daedalus.)

I still have lots of ideas for other optimisations I want to implement for R13 which I'll talk about over the coming days.

There are a number of different areas I can investigate to help improve performance. The two main possibilities I want to investigate are working on further dynarec improvements, and looking at making use the Media Engine. To start with I'm going to explore both of these areas and try and figure out which would give the biggest 'bang for buck' for R13.

hmmm.. interesting
