Compatibility improvements are a much higher priority than optimizations.

Could you please add a priority list to the FAQ? If not vague like compatibility(games/devices);emulation optimisations.

Understandable, the speed is so good already.

Compatibility is top priority, that's cool. It's cool to know too that optimization is acknowledged. Keep up the good work Exophase and Lordus, we will be counting on you.

Yesterday I tried New Super Mario on a Xperia U and it worked very fine, so I think you should just buy a new phone... 150€ would be enough

Not everybody has the money to buy a new phone just like that. A 1ghz is enough to run DraStic.

A compatible 1ghz phone. Try to get an a8 at least. Do research so if you do buy one, you won't get stuck with a slow a7 or god forbid, a totally unsupported one

So theoretically a single core 1ghz phone with A7 and above would run the emu faster than a dual core with A5?

Probably.

The low end would be xperia play (single core 1ghz) and other devices with similar specs/chipsets. obviously you can overclock many devices to squeeze that extra power out. When i had my Play before it took an unfortunate tumble out of a 3rd floor window i had it OC'd at 1.8ghz which was enough to run N64 emulation without frameskip. Here we can get devices like that second hand off of other people for like £30-£40.
