- Thanks for posting these benchmark timings.

- One question. Why would keeping the address of NEXT in a register on a 68040
- be considered unrealistic? Since the 68040 has more registers then Forth can
- realistically use, I would think that was desirable. It would also make the
- 68040, 486 comparison even more interesting.
