Lately I've been working on trying to add some speed / performance hacks to #DOSBox. The idea is a bit similar to the old DOSIDLE.EXE / POWER.EXE TSRs: detect when the system is idle or busy-looping, and give up the rest of the CPU cycles until something interesting happens (next frame, next BIOS tick, whatever).
There are a bunch of timing sources on the IBM PC and it's tricky to get them all, but as a proof of concept - here's the delay loop from GORILLA.BAS:
'Rest:
' pauses the program
SUB Rest (t#)
s# = TIMER
t2# = MachSpeed * t# / SPEEDCONST
DO
LOOP UNTIL TIMER - s# > t2#
END SUB
So, it busy-loops until the timer tick. In DOSBox I modified the BIOS INT 1A handler so that if the emulated machine requests the time twice and the same tick comes up, it's probably spinning, so I take away all the remaining cycle budget and sleep instead. And it actually works! Host CPU usage drops significantly - or, if you put it in Turbo Mode, the game plays WAY faster!

a 'must read' article.
Our current president, Gabriel #Boric, signed the #escazu agreement ( Acuerdo Regional sobre el Acceso a la Información, la Participación Pública y el Acceso a la Justicia en Asuntos Ambientales en América Latina y el Caribe ) that is, nothing less than, the agreement that will help enabling all these environmental issues to be addressed in our country.
@sezamoracl hola Sergio! peces escribir en español si quieres 😀
y compartir algún link de tu preferencia! El Acuerdo de Escazú se viene promoviendo desde hace unos 7 años ... y ganando adhesiones. Al final es visto por muchos movimientos sociales como un instrumento más de la financiarización de la naturaleza justo por lo que dices
