Wow 10-100 MB is enough to limit speed due to memory access times? I understand there is some limit to how much memory can be accessed per X period of time but I thought it was measured in GB before getting penalties. Shows what I know. :)

I don't see the compiler changing in architecture however so we'll just wait for faster hardware. ;)
