    88So 20 fps is not unusual, or too fast. It's the highest speed setting (outside of Fastest) of the interpreter. I would have to look into the game to see what it's doing.
    99
    10 There may be "optimizations" or rather hacks in some games for situations where the original interpreter struggled, which in turn set the speed to unlimited. A known example is the Apple IIgs interpreter, which was hacked to run at unlimited speed, simply because the computer hardware was not able to handle the games. We had to reimplement proper speed settings for Apple IIgs way because of this.
