[comp.sys.amiga] Public vs. Fast??

pete@i-core.UUCP (Pete Ashdown) (01/09/90)

Could someone please tell me the difference between allocating public and
allocating fast memory?  It seems to me that if you allocate public on a
machine with fast memory, it allocate in fast memory, just like "fast"
would.  If the machine had only CHIP memory, it would allocate in CHIP,
again, just like "fast" would (right?).  So what's the difference?  Should I
use "fast" or "public" for allocating memory out of CHIP (if it exists).

Send via mail please.
