https://unfoxnews.com/clocking-a-6502-to-15ghz/ https://unfoxnews.com/clocking-a-6502-to-15ghz/ tldr: 6502 is very similar to 8086 and doing a binary translation is fairly straightforward. But, it turns out that many instructions that took multiple cycles on the 6502 now execute in a single cycle on x64 and pipeline deeply with other ops. So, the effective performance of a 4Ghz x64 resembles that of a 15Ghz 6052.
