- boudin 4y agoIt's explained in the video, it uses https://github.com/FEX-Emu/FEX https://github.com/FEX-Emu/FEX
- asddubs 4y agoah sorry, I only watched the first minute or so since it didn't seem like the type of video that would dwell much on technical details like that
- jzelinskie 4y agoWill FEX ever leverage the hardware that Apple design for Rosetta 2 trickery? It seems like a heavy lift for a general purpose emulator, but at the same time there's probably a bunch of performance wins to be had.
- wmf 4y agoHardware TSO support actually simplifies emulation. I don't know if FEX uses it yet but it seems simple.
