Gp2X - Does Firmware Version Affect Emulator Performance

[svet-am]

Fairly easy question -- I'm 90% interested in GBA and SNES emulation. Are there benchmarks available for performance differences of the emulators when run on different firmware releases?

I just got my GP2X and am still messing around with flashing different firmwares to it and informally comparing this on my own right now, but would like to know if anyone else has input.

There would be absolutely no difference between any of the available firmwares. Open2X might provide a *slight* increase because it incorporates Notaz's SD read-ahead tweak and also allows cached writes of the entire upper memory segment by default. Most emulators already use both of these tweaks when necessary so it is a moot point.
