- From a programming POV, the '020 and '030 are virtually identical, apart
- from a few odd 68851 MMU specific '020 bits that were taken out for the
- '030.
-
- It's possible that optimisers may deal with '020 and '030 timings
- slightly differently, but I would think doing seperate '020 and '030
- versions of a program would be total overkill. If performance is really
- that critical recode vital segments in 680x0 assembler, assuming you can
- take better advantage of the cache architecture that way.
