@matrix Despite Rosetta having ~75% the performance of native, the chip itself has adaptations to make it run x86-like instructions efficiently. TBH it's the best thing Apple has done since Jobs passed away.
Win32⇒MacIntel⇒MacARM
DX11⇒Vulkan⇒Metal
the future is translation layers i guess

@matrix hm. so about on par with the PS2 emulators.
@matrix there is some impressive progress with recompilers in the emulation spheres. hard part with that one is when programs start writing new code in memory and running it (DRM, JITs) since you have to watch for attempts to jump in to this new space and re-compile that to the other CPU.
Assuming that's all you were doing that's not too bad.

@matrix "but nobody's going to port their shit to ARM!"
"fuck em! we'll drag their app over kicking and screaming!"
