You can get away with single CAS if you don't need full size pointers. Of course then you're actually using your list to refer to an array.

- dragontamer 4y agoIt should be noted that on most x86 machines, they only support 48-bit pointers, with 16 free bits you can use. I think some Intel chips have 57-bit support. But no CPU actually reads all 64-bits for some reason. So yeah, you can shove count-bits, either 16 of them or 7 of them or so.
