FEX 2408 Emulator For x86_64 Binaries On AArch64 Teases More Performance

Be nice to be able to run Chrome (not chromium) from a raspberry pi one day.

It is unfortunate they seem focused on legacy ARM ISA.

Box64 supports RISC-V proper.

Maybe Michael would be interested in running the benchmarks comparing Box64, FEX, QUEMU and the native versions? IIRC he currently owns a fast and modern ARM laptop.

I would be deeply interested in this. I have a Pinebook Pro that can comfortably run Minecraft Java, but it'd be great to see if it could be made to run older x86/x86-64 games and which games would run decently/well

That would be tremendous.

There's been a lot of leaps in performance ever since

How does FEX compare to similar solutions made by Apple or Microsoft? Performance and compatibility-wise?
