I remember running a program on my Amiga 3000 that replaced calls to the blitter with calls to the CPU. Performance for common operations, like scrolling text, was greatly improved.

Except for faster CPUs, the Amiga barely changed from 1985 to 1993. The AGA machines (1200, 4000) were too little, too late.
