In this directory, I'm developing some test cases to study some different options for Bochs performance improvements. ideas: write a loop or nested loop that takes some serious computing, that takes maybe 15 seconds to run benchmark on several machines compile with optimization and understand the assembly reimplement with switch stmt,function pointers, etc benchmark again to measure the overhead of switch & function calls test on several machines reimplement with goto *label (gcc extension) style benchmark again to measure the overhead of switch & function calls test on several machines or, by working more directly with the bochs source, we can test the performance benefit of the "cut-and-paste native code" method on a small scale.
