RandomX is designed so that if you design a RandomX ASIC then you've designed a CPU. It writes and then executes random programs. To minimize the possible efficiency gains from matching the instruction set architecture, the same program is executed several thousand times, reducing the relative overhead of translating it to a different ISA.
