(speed) is between, say, the standard RCX 2.0 firmware, IC4 firmware, and say
brickOS code? I thought I'd try rewriting Steve's Legway program in IC4 but
perhaps it really needs the extra speed of native code.

With all these OS's now available for the RCX, perhaps a benchmark program to
quantitatively compare them ain't such a bad idea... :-)

(...) From what I've seen (people running such tests) I believe the standard firmware requires about 3ms to execute a command, while the BrickOS 'firmware' will execute around 33 commands/ms (about 100 times faster). I also want to try re-writing (...) (22 years ago, 28-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) As far as I know, The IR stuff available for IC4 is in the 'RCX advanced library'(rcxextra.ic). So you should check this out. it isn't much, but all the basics are there. I had some ideas for some more advanced networking, based on these (...) (22 years ago, 28-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics)
