Warp per se doesn't care, but the machine may; check your manuals to find
out whether it will tolerate such a mix. There _is_ such a thing as a chip that
responds too fast for the rest of the circuit. Odds are that in most designs
this won't be an issue, but only your manufacturer can say for sure.
