 In the tests that follow, I am striving to answer first whether the rendering updates will be fast enough for reasonable use and second whether there will be any memory left to do anything interesting. In the tests that follow, I am striving to answer first whether the rendering updates will be fast enough for reasonable use and second whether there will be any memory left to do anything interesting.
  
-The frame update time of 76 ms with a 16 MHz processor (the inverse of the fps noted in the [[ display_SSD1306_OLED_u8g2.ino| source code]]) is respectable, and  +They are certainly fast enough, but the required program storage and dynamic memory isn't trivial.
-character change artifacts are not objectionable. Memory use is on the order of 46% of program storage space and 28% of dynamic memory on a Nano. +

-Before there was U8g2, there was [[https://github.com/olikraus/u8glib/wiki | U8glib]]. While this version of the library is no longer maintained, it doesn't mean it doesn't have value. It's constructors are a little less bewildering than U8g2 and so may be better suited to beginners. +Before there was U8g2, there was [[https://github.com/olikraus/u8glib/wiki | U8glib]].
