FAST ::: that's what you want.  Well There is a solution.

The hardware uses the lower 512k of ram for DMA COPPER etc.....
This 1/2 meg has it's own bus.  The problem currently is that
no one can expand above that memory space, and therefore
you application has contention with all of the Hardware HELP.

Put your application above the 512K border (wich is running 
on a seperate bus) and you can run the dma and AMIGA hardware
concurrent with your application without any Contention at all.

All I can ask for is a 128K expantion board above the current ram
to run my application on.  Sound simple and obvious I wonder if
it is going to happen???

I hope so.
