Neat. Looks like I found my new benchmark for my ARM64 JIT for BasiliskII :)

(still debugging it, but getting closer to full coverage)

The training loop is heavy on floating-point math and string parsing, so it should exercise the JIT nicely. I'd love to hear how it performs!

I just started doing PPC/SheepShaver as well, since 68K was stalling… Will come back to this eventually.
