Speed on Sam440:I assume the missing level 2 cache on the 440s will have a big impact on rendering speed. TW basically performs better with higher memory bandwidth.Whether there is CPU load after loading the page or not also depends on the page that is shown, since some pages have scripts running or animations. I also think that there's constant database activity.hardware accelerated rendering:The Firefox codebase provides a backend for acceleration through OpenGL. Sadly, MiniGL isn't up to the task. Therefore, this sort of acceleration will be available with Gallium in one of the next AmigaOS releases.We are also looking into writing our own layer manager for TW using the compositing engine of AmigaOS 4.1. I have no idea, though, how complex this task will be, as I haven't looked into that code yet.Also, as Rogue already said, the updates are currently merged into one big box. That means, if there is a loading animation in the top right, and a progress bar in the lower left, the whole screen will be redrawn since both rectangles will be merged into one. Future versions will use a smarter algorithm for merging boxes that try to minimize the amount of redraw operations and at the same time keep the area of redraw at a minimum.
Io sto aspettando la recensione di Allanon :mrgreen:
@DivinaBeh e' una beta, sarei un po' curioso di sapere i crash da cosa dipendano...cioe' saranno problemi risolvibili a livello di TW o andranno riscritte parti di OS4?
Non so, sono perplesso. Anche perché browser "nativi AmigaOS" ne esistono, e sono basati su WebKit (quindi aggiornati con HTML5 e chincaglieria varia).
o è proprio il fatto che owb è il browser di morphos e quindi, data la rivalità, si è preferito altro?
