I should imagine implementing a register-based VM on a register-based CPU is going to have some advantages over a stack-based VM implemented on a register-based CPU. I wonder how well a register-based VM would fair on a stack-based CPU.
- shincert 10y agoThat's interesting. Are there any actual stack-based CPUs out there today?

- frjalex 10y agoThat's fascinating. Would love to see what performance such thing can actually perform.
