flashfx pro for vxworks based arm9260

               FlashFX Sample Project for the ARM Integrator 926

	This project is designed to be used with the ARM Integrator 926
	platform in combination with Wind River VxWorks 6.1.

	The FIM has been defined in ffxconf.h as FFXFIM_iff2x16 which is
	correct for the Intel 2x16 FlashFile flash used in this platform.

	Before building this project you must edit the ffxconf.h file
	and specify the correct flash window address and size that you
	wish to use.

	---------[ Changing ToolSets ]---------

	This project is preconfigured to use the "gnuvx6x" ToolSet.  To
	change this to use DIAB tools, or to target VxWorks 5.x, edit
	the prjinfo.bat and change the P_TOOLSET value as follows:

	"gnuvx5x"       Use GNU tools to target VxWorks 5.x
	"gnuvx6x"       Use GNU tools to target VxWorks 6.x (default)
	"diabvx5x"      Use Diab tools to target VxWorks 5.x
	"diabvx6x"      Use Diab tools to target VxWorks 6.x
 
	---------[ Performance Information ]---------

	Hardware Configuration:
		Platform:		ARM Integrator 926
		Processor:		?
		Processor speed:	?
		Bus speed:		?
		Flash type:		Intel FlashFile (2x16)

	Software Configuration:
		Operating System:	VxWorks 6.4
		FlashFX Pro version:	3.10
		Flash disk size:	4MB
		VBF block size:		512B
		Device sector size:	512B
		Test Date:		5/20/2005

	FlashFX Unit Test Performance Results:

		  Write    128 	                    Write     120 
		  Erase    240                      Discard  3416

	Performance Results:	   dosFs    Reliance v1.2
	-------------------------------------------------------------
	FSIOTEST /SEQ  Read  	     768 	   ?
		       Write 	      30 	   ?
		       Rewrite        25           ?
		 /RAND Read  	     106   	   ?
		       Write 	      16 	   ?

	Results are in KB/second.  In all cases FSIOTEST was run with
	the /Max:3072 parameter to use a maximum of 3MB of the disk.

	Reliance was configured to transact on close, flush, disk-full,
	dismount, and power-down conditions.

 	It is important to note that performance results will vary with
	disk size when using flash media.  Smaller disk sizes, combined
	with larger erase zone sizes will naturally result in a higher
	percentage of flash compaction operations for a given amount of
	data written.
