Sorry, meg of course. Still harking back to the days of OS9 with 64kb
RAM....
My embedded products use a cpu with 2K bytes of on-chip ram. I've
rarely needed more, even on products with user interfaces and eternet.
2K bytes, Luxury! I did a multitasking[1] OS in 256 bytes.
[1] 3 is multiple, isn't it.
That ain't a lot of room to save even three contexts on three stacks.
Which CPU?
