L4TIMER selects the game clock (L4TIME.CPP): FAST = HMI SOS interrupt clock at 28 Hz, unset = polled 18.2 Hz BIOS tick. Not a speed switch -- finer time quantum, smoother sim dt and timing cadences. Per the operator: the flag tracked the deployed fleet's hardware -- original Tesla pods ran Pentium Pro 90s (SLOW), later fleets Pentium Pro 200s (FAST). The emulated pod has no ISR-headroom constraint, so FAST is our default from here on. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# The RIO drops comms if an ACK is late by more than a few ms. Empirically
|
|
# (2026-07-03) a SLOWER CPU makes it fail SOONER -> the ACK latency is
|
|
# dominated by how fast the game processes the RIO packet and replies, so we
|
|
# run the CPU as fast as possible:
|
|
# - core=dynamic: recompiler, many x faster than the 'normal' interpreter.
|
|
# - cycles=max: full host speed.

# discovers inbound bytes ~10x sooner.

# rxburst:16 -- deliver host-buffered bytes 16x faster than emulated wire

# speed. Stock DOSBox re-serializes each received byte at

# ~1ms (9600 baud) even though the bytes already paid wire
|

# time on the physical cable -- a 15-byte analog reply got
|
|
# +14ms of artificial latency, blowing the RIO's window and
|
|
# dropping the game into its 15-second retry fallback
|
|
# ("really slow polling").
