SUBJECT: transputer performance and memory usage.
 
Has anybody any refs./ideas about how the amount of memory used (and
whether the code &/or data goes into the on-chip memory) affects the
performance of the transputer???
 
I have some really strange timings for different (compile-time)
allocations for 2 slightly diff. versions of a code. Sometimes the
larger code goes quicker and sometimes it goes slower. Please could
anybody help me before I go crazy????
