- Most number I see are in pixel second... From pc card speed sheet to SGI
- tech reference, in this 2 example they aply to realtime operation.
-
- having a ms report of convereting a 320x256 screen is totaly weird.
- scanline is the same thing... you need to define your scanline timing.
-
- A pixel and a second is well defined... What is more logical?
-
- 1) I can c2p 4.4 mpixel per second on a 25mhz 030
- or
- 2) I can c2p a 320x256 screen in 18.5 ms ...
