@vertigo @alcinnz there's also the problem that even if we do solve the memory speed problem, there's still the problem of signals only going so fast across a circuit board before they end up getting out of sync, corrupted by noise, etc. it'd be far better to have static RAM and a little processor on the same chip, where they could keep up with each other - but that limits the size of RAM (and also the complexity of the processor, but that's a good thing). it also means that adding more RAM would add more processing power... which could only be used if your system were sufficiently parallel to just start doing that already
