Just got a new X2 Elite Extreme Snapdragon laptop. The CPU single and multi core speed is insane. Performance could be much better with native ARM64 support.

x86 emulation hits these chips harder than Apple Silicon on MacOS. Please consider adding native Windows ARM64 support. I would be happy to test this out.

I can also do the work myself if I get access to relevant project files. My 18-core setup is ready for testing. Data shows native apps run much faster than emulated ones on Oryon.

Let me know what you need from me.

the project source code is here:

you should also start with the BOINC source code and build a native BOINC client. it will help a lot more.

Thanks for the link to the source code.

I will attempt to build a native Windows ARM64 version of the application for testing on my 18-core setup.

If I succeed with the compilation I will return with the results and data here in the thread.

I already have a build ready, feel free to try

I was fighting with Clang, and it doesn’t seem to work properly. This version is built using MSVC.

Of course, it’s the CPU version. As mentioned in other threads, Adreno GPUs don’t support FP64, so building the GPU version isn’t possible.

Thanks for also providing a build for this project. I'll test this soon as well :)
