-
- The following is an example of some of the useful information DTA
- will display for you.
-
- CPU: 68040/68882
-
- Volume: DH1 (DCFFS)
-
- Processing file "dl:LionKing.lha".
-
- Read 946054 bytes / 923.9K in 0 seconds and ~432129 microseconds.
-
- Data Transfer Analysis (DTA) = 2.1M/second (2189286 bytes/second).
-
- The idea behind this very simple/crude program is to give you an

- what type of memory they are in, your drive/controller speed, your
- system's CPU load, the maxtransfer and DMA settings, file system, ...
-
- This program just samples the time, reads a LARGE file, and samples
- the time again...
