RAM is a global variable
I never leave L1.
I did once write a small program for the PDP-10 that ran entirely in the registers (which happened also to be addressable as the first 18 words of memory)
What did it do?
Something dull like compute fibbonaci numbers. Though there was a legit reason to do this: IIRC this procedure was how you bootstrapped the machine.
I never leave the trace cache. FEEB.
