Unfortunately, you can't just brush of an obnoxious architecture by saying
"The compiler people will worry about this." Let's stay real, folks.
Underlying models matter, and the Intel model is about as bad as they come.
If this is what we have to live with, I suppose we'll manage somehow,
but if you think it doesn't affect you, you're wrong.
Actually what do you mean by the intel model? And how is it inferior to
Motorola 68k architecture?
Not by speed anyway.
