And if I want to run a MUD on a 486, then what?

I do not like unnecessarily throwing out a large chunk of performance.
Little things that reduce performance to help readability, memory use, etc.
are things I typically do.  They have a benefit, but I don't gratuitously
do it because "oh, you'll have a faster processor anyway."
