-
- Yes, I use MiNT on my TT all the time.. they were made for each other :-).

-
- As the minimum memory on a TT is 2MBytes, any TT will be able to run GCC,
- but I would recommend at least 4MBytes to do anything worthwhile.

-
- With a compute intensive task it can be up to 1.5 time faster than "ST-RAM".
- Programs compiled with GCC with the -m68020 option usually get a doubling of
- speed relitive to the same code compiled on an ST.
