That's what happens when you multitask with only 1 CPU. That's not what should happen. Cool Minecraft Schematic Download House. Neither an MP3 player nor Bejewelled should take far less than 50% of a 175MHz RISC chip. Call Recorder Software For Nokia 206 Flash.

For Bejeweled 2 on the Palm webOS, GameFAQs has game information and a community message board for game discussion. THE MIDLANDS, UK – January 11th, 2005 – Astraware and PopCap have released an update for the Palm OS® version of Bejeweled 2 which increases the options. Should I upgrade from the Galaxy Note 4 to the Note 5? If you can take two notable losses in stride, you'll be happy with this switch. The time comes each year when.

And that means that if you run them simultaneously, neither of them should experience any slowdown. If there is a slowdown, it is really a software architecture problem in Palm OS 5: some combination of poor multitasking support, busy waiting, etc. That's not surprising, given the history of Palm OS. Let's hope it gets fixed for good in Palm OS 6. >That's not what should happen. Neither an MP3 player nor Bejewelled should take far less than 50% of a 175MHz RISC chip. And that means that if you run them simultaneously, neither of them should experience any slowdown.

That's not necessarily true. Bejewelled isn't native ARM code so it is dependent on the 'emulator'.

My guess would be more than 50% since Bejeweled was designed for a colored Palm (approx. Bolt Aquila Max Driver.zip Torrent. 33 MHZ - I may be wrong in these assumptions). MP3 is a fairly complicated 'application' as well. So a T T (144 MHZ) could be struggling with two time intensive programs. MP3 players are barely noticeable on modern CPUs, and Bejewelled should be doing little more than wait for input, blink, and move a bunch of sprites around occasionally. A 144MHz ARM should, in principle, be able to handle all of this with plenty of room to spare; a few years ago, that kind of machine was considered a high-end desktop workstation, used for engineering and CAD work.

There is nothing wrong with wasting CPU cycles when there are CPU cycles to waste. But let's not pretend that something is a CPU limitation when it is pretty clearly due to some combination of emulation, limitations in multitasking, and busy-waiting applications. This is fixable, and software authors and Palm should fix it.
