Addition of a DMA controller to our compression module has enhanced the system throughput by a factore of two. Advantages of current design strategy which stresses full compliance with industry standards is weighted against its set backs. Potential performance enhancement based on a more customized approach is discussed. It is shown that the compression module naturally expands into a high performance display station with the addition of primitive display controller boards. By sharing resources such as a large frame buffer and DMA controller, an optimal cost/performance scenario can be achieved.
