- From the Shell prompt, type:
-
- AIBB -c0 -m0 -f2 -cs50 -fs50
-
- Et Voila! AIBB running on an `060.
-
- Even without the ability to test the 32bit instructions,
- the results are rather pleasing :-)
-
-
- As to the speed of the 060 compared with the 040, I`ve been
- doing some test renders using Imagine 3 FP, and I`ve got someone
- with an A4000/040-25 to do identical renders. The 060-50
- turns out to be about 3x faster than the 040-25 in this case.
