"High speed" shouldn't be a concern, should it? By adjusting the clocks I believe you can run the CPU as slow as you wish.
Complexity and the ratio of visible behavior over unobservable state is astronomically worse than for a 8bit CPU and therefore a concern, still.
- userbinator 7y agoDue to things like dynamic logic and PLLs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-locked_loop https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-locked_loop ), modern CPUs can't clock down into the tens of MHz range or lower. There's also the issue of things like DRAM refresh.
