The caveat is, as expressed elsewhere other times, that some firmware+device combinations make Kingsoft very slow (and other products a sunken nail). I have not yet raised a complaint because I have not yet produced numbers to substantiate, although I did carry on an unfinished comparison (and because I am not yet again deep in intensive editing). Sooner or later I'll start a thread, write Onyx etc. But in theory, it can work amazingly, because it did.
...And multicore, which we will get in the near future, is not "the solution": of course the software will be speedier, but this does not eliminate the requirement of assessing why views such as those used by Kingsoft have become slow with the recent firmwares.
