Optimization for Intel Atom platforms when developing for MeeGo apps

If you are developing MeeGo apps on AppUp, we have some recommendations for you in terms of what you can do to optimization your apps. If you are using GNU GCC compiler to compile, we recommend using these flags:

    -march=atom     -O3     -flto     -mfpmath=sse     -ffast-math


The last flag, -ffast-math, will significantly speed up your mathematical operations especially in loops but it may also cause your results to lose precisions.

ATOM Processor Considerations

When porting to the netbook platform one observes a vast improvement in the available resources, namely in the sheer power of the ATOM CPU. Top of the list for most developers is "How can I take advantage of all of that power?”. Let us go down a similar path in exploring several key aspects to consider when it comes down to utilizing this new found CPU performance.

Using Microsoft Profiler to identify performance issues in your ATOM App

When it comes to writing a great application for the netbook there are many attributes we strive for including a slick user interface, a rich feature set and on this platform most of all... PERFORMANCE.

Sure, a stellar user interface and dazzling eye candy will get an initial purchase, but it is the efficient code behind the scenes that pulls it all together into a smooth customer experience.

Developing for power and performance on a Netbook

Netbooks have characteristics that can make them very desirable for certain workloads. Understanding the limits of the devices can help you focus your work in ways that will give you the best return for the time you spend optimizing. Here are a few points to consider when looking at power and performance issues.
