My point remains: Until we see some real-world results, it makes little
sense to agree with your claims, and there is certainly no way I could
write about them. Have you got hardware up and running, or is this a paper
calculation? (As Jack Tramiel says, "Why produce a product, when you can
announce one?") By fall, the new fast file system will be out, and
everyone's results will go through the (next) roof; they will double or
triple as you claim, if they have a standard AmigaDOS driver. Could you
post the methodology of your scheme for normalizing the results of
'diskperf', so we all can comment on its veracity and efficacy as an
alternate benchmark? I can supply the AC 'diskperf' numbers in Lotus
format, if needed.
