OK, I've seen the JIT'ed RedSquirrel and I can say that on an Athlon 1.6GHz vs my SA287, RS is faster with memory and FP (and disk I guess) but slower with integer, although in use it seems slower.

I guess a Kinetic may even it out a bit with it's faster memory. Anyway the issue is that this will be faster than a R7500 portable.

Dyrstones/sec: RS: 110866, SARPC: 482205

kWhetsones/sec (FP) RS: 7862, SARPC: 3330

Cache memory read (Mb/sec): RS: 3657, SARPC: 965

I don't think the Alpha will do much better, if at all, after all it's a Mobile Celery. My Duron 750 was slower than my PIII/500....

  • Prototype affordable Braille display in development
    A low-cost computer-controlled Braille board has been prototyped by a RISC OS-using university student. Undergraduate Edward Rogers hopes to sell his completed units for as little as 200 quid each to schools and families to allow more blind children to continue learning Braille. And he said he wanted to launch his venture using RISC OS-powered kit before offering a package for other platforms.
