Blue & Flu 4kB intros by New Beat are one of the least Hatari CPU using
Falcon demos I've encountered (they don't need DSP):

They run fine even in Hatari on N900 (600Mhz) phone.


If you notice something causing noticeably more CPU by Hatari than
normal, mail the list and I could profile it a bit, especially if it's
something related to Falcon emulation as that hasn't been profiled
& optimized as much as ST emulation.

(For ST programs typical large Hatari CPU usage reasons are frequent spec512
palette switching and high number of interrupts.  I don't see anything that
could be significantly improved in those unfortunately.)
