What is this based upon? I can see that if you go to exploit some z
technology very deeply (DCSS, XIP, etc), which might impact your ability
to admin the system. (Not saying in a bad way, but different from what
people are used to on x86.) But is there any other significant
technology that'd save memory? Both are 64bit, although x86 has more
historical baggage around.

Kind regards and thanks
