Overclocking Accellerator and other Transwarp questions



Hey there.  I got a handful of 65816-14 processors and today I got some
crystals (a 40, a 48, and a 64) with the intent of enhancing my Transwarp
(1.5 ROM revision).

I popped in a processor and the 48, and things boot up nicely.  The 64 (a
bit high, I know) just comes up with a sound initialization error, so I know
that's too extreme.  I'd like some crystals in the 50-60MHz range, but
haven't found them.

Anyway, so I've currently got it at 12MHz, and things seem to work.  Booted
up my hardrive, ran a couple apps, etc.  How do I stress test it to see how
it performs?  I've got it running Modulae currently.

Other questions -

1:  The blinking green light.. what exactly does it represent?  Cache hits?
I notice that it blinks at different rates, going out altogether when its
busy doing disk I/O.

2:  What is the connector on the transwarp board for?  Direct connection to
a memory card?  Undeveloped interface or something?

3:  Anyone want a half sized 64MHz oscillator?
