It's surely _possible_, but, at present, there is no way to accelerate
performance on a CD32 except through the use of fast RAM (which can speed
things up by a factor of about 2.5). Some third parties have explored  
030/040 add-ons or replacement accelerators, but I'm not certain where
these efforts stand, given Escom's at best ambivalent attitude toward the
machine and the considerable slowdown in the CD32 software market.
