I hope that the reply I gave to Alex were reasuring for you. It might
also be possible like OSX to set some 68K registers in order to optimize
the inner VM loop.
After thinking about it (and a few hours of sleep) I am not as worried
about it because there are a few performance bottlenecks where it
would be easy to implement core calculations in C. But I would be
curious to hear any estimate of how much performance you gain through
register optimization.
