I would be interested in discussing the benefits/limitations of the National
MMU chip with anyone who has experience with it. In particular, I am looking
for thoughts on running paged systems - how bad is context switch overhead,
for example. Is it appropriate for use with a true 32-bit CPU (32032), or does 
it suffer from limitations? If you have done any work with this chip, 
particularly software (UNIX* porting???), and are willing to enter into a 
discussion with me about it, please drop me a line (uucpmail, NOT a followup. 
I will summarize if there is interest). Thanks muchly.
