"I have wondered how it is that my Mac Plus became a machine with almost no noticeable delays when I upgraded to 4mb ram"

I remember when I ran the original MacPaint (I assume it was in hand optimized assembler?) on a 16 MHz 68030 and it was amazing - everything seemed to simply be instantaneous. It put in perspective how when the 68000 came out, it was a "minicomputer on a chip" and the 68030 was conceived as a "mainframe on a chip".
