ilox86performance
*iloX86 is not particularly fast. This is mostly due to I/O
limitations.
At present, all I/O is done by using port i/o and polling. This
is very wasteful in CPU cycles, and places significant limits in
terms of performance.
As of Q1 2024 I am (slowly) looking into DMA and expanding use
of interrupts to help improve things, but this is not a high
priority project for me.
