I was intrigued by this paragraph:

> Making all of the opcode implementations the same size (padding to the size of the largest opcode implementation with .balign 256), then removing the jump table entirely. This was also slower, also probably because of cache friendliness: the opcode implementations go from 16.6 KiB total to 64 KiB.

Probably normalizing the opcode implementations length to the maximum length is not optimal. A possible experiment would be to normalize to the modal length. I would expect most opcodes to be arithmetic or logic operations and to share the same implementation length. The (hopefully few) more complex ones would need a trampoline.

Is this a crazy idea?
