Hmm, for micro-benchmark maybe, but this has to be measured once the JIT is ready.
From the stack VM, I can notice a slight slowdown w.r.t. 32 bits stack. But it doesn't really matter, stak is too slow compared to COG, so let's wait.

:) So is it correct to think that a lot of number oriented computation will go faster because not on large positive integers?

SmallInteger maxVal highBit -> 60. 3 bits reserved for immediate tags, 1 bit for sign, 60 remaining for positive magnitude...

Super !!! Eliot what will be
1 class maxval then?
