Wouldn't be fast enough to be real-time. Also emulation is never good on batteries. I want to build real usable devices. On batteries.

- userbinator 8y agoI think I got the wrong impression from your article; I thought you were trying to write something like a Gameboy emulator. As to not being fast enough, smartphones now have multiple >1GHz cores, and emulating an ARM with an ARM naturally leads to virtualisation-ish approaches. It doesn't seem a mid-90s/early 2000s PDA would need that much computing power.
- dmitrygr 8y agoTungsten C had a 400-MHz ARMv5 core and 64MB of RAM Good luck emulating that realtime on your phone with good battery life (or at all). :)
