The memory protection doesn't account for the performance hit. It's all the layers of shitty software and garbage devices on top.

- renox 7y agoMemory protection only adds a small performance hit that's true but it also requires a totally different way of working. I don't know much about Amiga but I remember that when reading about Synthesis (a very fast & low latency kernel https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-modifying_code#Synthesis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-modifying_code#Synthesis ) thinking that it was only possible without memory protection..
