http://www.mpeforth.com/arena/ProgramForth.pdf section 21 I know I should stop theorizing but wouldn't it make sense that something good in smallmemorysystems would do really well with lots of memory EG modern intel commodity hardware? Or do things like lisp have garbage collection etc( he mentions) that make it simpler that forth for non memory thin hardware?
