That's not true (I suppose you're referring to the lack of AltiVec support), the memory throughput is limited by hardware (and AltiVec does not change that, although you can have seemingly better results using it (with streaming in particular) due to larger read/write ops (though the bus is limited to 64bit anyway) and more efficient cache usage (with some effort you can still make it quite efficient without AltiVec), but as usual it all boils down to how well you tune the code for the specific task at hand), MorphOS has no influence over that (apart from setting default cache-modes for various areas of memory (each with their own up- and downsides))...
