Short: Speed up 060 chipmem writes! V1.0.6 Author: sintonen@jyu.fi (Harry Sintonen) Uploader: sintonen@jyu.fi (Harry Sintonen) Version: 1.0.6 Type: util/boot Requires: Amiga with 68060 CPU. SetPatch & 68060.library Replaces: util/boot/speedychip.lha This utility patches 060 MMU tables such that chip memory cachemode is changed to Cache-Inhibited, Imprecise exception model, thus giving more time for CPU between chip memory writes. Assembler sourcecode included. New 68060.library (V42+) by Phase5 digital products set chipmem cachemode already, so you only need this program if you have older 68060.library. There is also program called SetCacheMode by Phase5 that can be used to change chip cachemode too. This routine can be used for any purpose (for demos too, hehe:), but you should give me some credit... (or? I don't think this is unreasonable). Note that this patch needs to be started after SetPatch. Installation (as some ppl had problems (!) with this) ------------ Copy speedychip to c: and add "speedychip" line just after SetPatch to s:startup-sequence.
