RMFaster is a bit daft these days
| Reported by: | Stuart Swales (8827) | Severity: | Minor |
| Part: | RISC OS: Module | Release: | |
| Milestone: | Status | Open |
Details by Stuart Swales (8827):
RMFaster can’t be used to migrate many modules out of the ‘ROM’ as they are not actually relocatable, having been linked Absolute at their calculated ROM address. When they are moved to RMA, they fail. We could address this by:
a) marking modules which cannot be relocated as such and add code to examine this on RMFaster;
b) making RMFaster a NOP, but leave it in case some scripts use it.
Guess which I’d prefer?
[We only put it in to keep Sophie happy, so that BASIC could be run at full speed back in Arthur days.]
