So it looks like about a 2.5 speedup with computed goto. Cool.
Looks really good to me, too. Where's the patch? This should probably
go in as an alternate runops core.

Added features:
1) 'alloci(i,i|ic)' - Allocates $2 integers, sets $1 to a reference to

OK then, here is the patch, of course I don't expect this to be commited
since it's crap but if you test it (please do it) and it's ok for everyone
I will rewrite it more efficiently.
*PLEASE* test it and give me some feedback.
Thanks in advance.

My intial impression is that a page should be 1024 bytes (though I'm also
looking at 512 bytes to reduce the shotgun effect of 8-byte allocs).
I've actually found that q-caches were detramental to things like
conslidation, and the calling depth (overhead) of a worst-case allocation.

Allocating them globally is not possible if we're going allow people
to add arbitrary encodings and character sets -
