Impressive! I thought emulation would be embarrassingly slow - my attempts to get Windows VMs running on macOS on Apple Silicon resulted in single-digit FPS just rendering the desktop. What dark arts are they conducting?
FEX redirects graphics library calls to their native equivalents. This substantially reduces the amount of translated code you need to execute.

That’s ridiculously cool. Really appreciate you sharing that.
