Is Sleeper “Accelerated for PowerPC”?

Yes. If the SCSI Manager on your system is running in native mode, Sleeper will install native code to do its work. Note, however, that in System 7.5.1 and prior (even on PowerMacs), the SCSI Manager runs in emulation. In this case, Sleeper installs 680×0 code, which runs faster than native code would because of the overhead of switching back and forth between native and emulated modes. To tell what code Sleeper has installed, command-click on the “Help” icon in Sleeper’s control panel.
