Interesting to see that MAME gets "slower" with every release. Here's a little fps table:

That is interesting. I wonder if the sudden slowdown at version 0.107 was due to the move to the new graphics engine MAME is now using? :unsure:
"The primary reason for this was that the Windows code was changed to always choose a 32-bit video mode if available, rather than supporting 16-bit video modes. The reasoning behind this decision is that palette values are computed to full 24-bit resolution internally, and even though Pac-Man doesn’t use more than 32 colors itself, those 32 colors aren’t perfectly represented by a 16-bit video mode."Quote:

Ah Ha! I guessed it right! :D
