PROGRAM KICKSPEED FUNCTION To show the difference in speed when reading kickstart with and without the 32 bit RAM remap. It reads the entire kickstart 10 times and displays the time result. CHANGES V1.0 First release with Set040 V1.xx V1.1 Changed the result to seconds instead of ticks. It now looks for, and tests kickstarts at addresses other than $f80000. This version was first distributed with Set040 V2.xx V1.2 The program will now size itself for 1.3 size kickstarts so that it reads only the 256k size but for the same amount (5 meg). The seconds display in the last version was total rubbish, and has been corrected in this version and checked for accuracy.

DISTRIBUTION As per the Set040 documentation, as this program may only be distributed as part of the Set040 archive. REQUIREMENTS Any Amiga OTHER INFO This program was written and tested on an Amiga A3000 with a Progressive Peripherals & Software 68040 card. USAGE KICKSPEED result = Time in seconds to read kickstart 10 times IMPROVEMENTS/BUGS All suggestions will be carefully considered. All bugs will be fixed A.S.A.P. NOTES I wrote this program to test the MMU set up I was doing for my Set040 program. It would be handy for anyone who is working with the MMU on a 68040 processor, or that would like to test the speed difference between ROM and RAM.
