Title: 5500 Apps going slow on SL-5600
Post by: gregt on May 11, 2004, 10:47:59 pm

Gidday,

I was wondering if anyone else with a 5600 has found that applications compiled for the 5500 run very slowly on them?

In particular, I downloaded the neat-looking Zaurus Sky Explorer and it runs so slowly that it\'s pretty much unusable.

Loading will always be slower on the 5600 because it uses a different type of memory for storage, which is slower (but keeps everything even when the battery is dead).

You may also have a 5600 with the PXA250 CPU, in which case you might want to try the Special Kernel version 1.3: http://www.zaurususergroup.com/modules.php...download&sid=53 (http://www.zaurususergroup.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=UpDownload&file=index&req=viewsdownload&sid=53)
