Indeed. Bitmapped fonts, 640x512 ( at most) resolution, 4 colours. Even upping the colour depth increases memory bandwidth considerably.
Yeah but ... modern PCs kinda have 500,000 times the memory bandwidth of an Amiga ... raise the resolution, raise the number of bits, you have many many many multiples left over. Except oh wait, rendering is now done by specialized GPUs with even crazily faster local accesses.
To make these kind of “bitmapped fonts” / “higher resolution” arguments requires a lack of perspective on how crazy modern computers are. Just look at the numbers.
Not disagreeing. But there were other factors, not least of which is windows Vs AmigaOS, and coding practices tend to be a lot safer with more safeguards, which drags down performance. Still no excuse for laziness though.
