Sorry, Andreas. Maybe i wasn't clear: I don't want brief answers, i
need details. :)

I would like to hear your opinion on that in context: what if you
would design a VM from scratch,
and having a direct access to high-optimization compiler/jit. What
would be your choice?

I read Squeak VM design descriprion before.
Still it would be good to know , if an impact of indirect pointers can
be measured and how.
