I don't have a reading for q11, but I do for q12. Over all performance is
up at least 10 to 15% from q7 (the last reading I have before this) and
some stuff like disk I/O is up 50% (from 1.03 to 1.5). Video is much
snappier, and sound and floppy access seem to be funtioning fully. I have
a game that does multicahnnel synchronous sound and Executor handles it
great!
