Odyssey 3.0 Alpha vs 1.23r5

I recorded a few minutes of video comparing version 1.23r5 with the latest Alpha version. As is often the case with early versions, not everything works as it should, especially since, just like in the initial releases for AROS, the engine is still several years old. Nevertheless, out of the 10 problematic pages, each shows some progress, to a greater or lesser extent.

Nice progress!

It works well, but is slow on my old AmigaONE-XE,
and it needs a lot of ram, I run out ram if I open the web browser twice.

the right scroll bar is not usable:
-----------------------------------
I don't know if try update page in the event loop, but if it does its a bad idea, should be done after the event loop, maybe also measure the time, it can be useful to to not try to render the page more often then hardware possible can.

Scroll wheel works fine, and page up and page down, works.. so its not a show stopper.

for an alpha version is awesome!!!

This version of OWB 3.0 is based on the AROS 64-bit version of Deadwood. In fact, to get the most out of OWB 3.0, you would need to have much more RAM.

On AROS 64-bit, we use a minimum of 4/6 GB of RAM to watch YouTube videos as fast as on a Windows PC. AROS 64Bit has no RAM limits.

I have 512mb ram, I think not easy or possible to install 2Gb, system will most likely start crashing. AmigaONE-XE is a tricky computer, if manage to get it running stable don't touch it. i think most AmigaONE-XE and SE models have 256 mb ram. I think at least 1GB ram for this web browser, to be on the safe side.

I think this be a different story on a AmigaONE-X1000.

No, even on X1000 you rapidly reach the limit and it crashes.

Really nice evolution, many sites working at last but too memory hungry for the moment.

Let's wait for the future versions (still using Browservice at thje moment, working like a charm).
