All the new features - including disconnect/reconnect (see
GVP's ad in the September issue of AmigaWorld for details) -
were implemented in Version 3 (also called FAAASTROM) of
GVP's SCSI driver. Since V3 also works with all existing GVP
cards (not just the new full-DMA controllers), it is now
their _only_ driver.

Executing out of 32-bit RAM instead of 16-bit ROM _does_
make a difference. I don't remember the exact figures, but
it was significant. Why would Dave have implemented the
FASTROM and CARDROM options in SetCPU?

discussion, let's move it to private e-mail, ok?
