I'm afraid all these demos use synched code. As i said (and used in my
last demo), the execution of some CPU instructions can overlap partially
with the blitter (it depends on how the instruction fetch words from the
bus). I'll have to disassemble these demos to check how they start the
blitter and what instruction come just after, to be sure i'm not missing
something.
