hi,

not certain about that, but i can say that the 32bit data first has to GET
to the chip memory/chip - and that is twice as much data.

basically, the answer is that spending time making HereticII 32bit (the PC
version was a 16bit game too) is pointless as no Amiga Hardware could play
the game at a decent framerate (only the top PPC cards with 3D hardware
acceleration can even play the 16bit version decently) and we've already
seen how many people complain at 64Mb of RAM - tell them they need at least
128Mb and see how many people can then even think about it
