skategoat 🐐 🇵🇸Enough slow IRIX emulator for today. Now back to real MIPS iron! *Octane boot noises*
Jürgen@elbosso That's not so unlikely at all, because first attempts to port Rust to IRIX have been made just recently!

@flexion Can you estimate how much slower the Indy emulator is than a real Indy (or a real anything-MIPS-from-that-era)?
@kbob The 6.5.22 image took 8 minutes (!!) to boot, but looks like the HD image I used is cursed and also there's a new PR for performance improvements available now. Should load in 3 minutes.
Now I tried the 5.3 image and this boots in 47 seconds to the login prompt, which is very close to the real Indy!!

@kbob now with a new 6.5.22 image it boots in 2:11 👍 waaay better!
