Gee, how does it perform? I built a clone of a Logical Microcomputer Co. 32016 Multibus system and got it working. But, it was glacially slow! I did have some memory that was likely a little slower than the stock memory, but it wasn't insanely slow. But, firing up certain things like editors was just maddening. And, I'm not talking about Emacs, just vi. I eventually got a MicroVAX-II to replace it, and, yes, that DID have a cache to speed up the memory, but it was quite a difference.
