Did you use the Thumb ISA for the ARM ? Same is said to be more compact than
ARM32. With a slow memory interface (regarding CPU speed) Thumb might be
faster, too.

Yes because code would not fit otherwise and I had the largest flash processor
available. The micronas device uses AMD/Spansion flash internally.
We were in production for just a few years with Micronas and they decided to
discontinue all the ARM devices that we were using. The redesign has cost us a
fortune.
A few months later at a show in Detroit a Micronas salesman asked me if I was
interested in their processors. My response was that their name was a curse
where I work.
