Hi Litwr,
That 2.2 times speed difference is a misconception. Just because a computer which is more suited to run action packed games than the other runs these programs quicker it cannot be said that its processor is faster. The Commodore hardware with its fine scrolling capabilities, hardware sprites and a very exploitable video chip is more suited to run games and thats all. Should you pair the Z80 with hardware similarly capable it'd very likely produce equally or maybe even faster running games.
