Is there another CPU with something like the 6502's zero page RAM?
On the 6502, the first page of RAM can be accessed much faster than the rest.
You have the ability to make many many virtual registers in RAM at only the cost of a couple clock cycles.

@dirtycommo@anticapitalist.party AVR8 does something similar where the 32 GPRs are also the first 32 bytes of the address space
