There were OS support when fastram arrived (obviously). Since their chipset supported 4 megs of chipram (14 megs on later machines), they didn’t have to worry about slowram etc. So it wasn’t really an issue for them.

Nah that’s not true. Mxalloc() takes fast/chip flags just like AllocVec() etc. Fastram support was available since TOS v2, 1988(89?).
