Thank you for this, it is most welcome.

As tested on a M1 MacBook Air the native interpreter runs faster than the
previous 0.9.3a under Rosetta2. The recompiler looks very slow, as seen by
very slow screen redraws, but it benchmarks better than that might imply.


MIPs romark drystone
Previous 0.9.3a
interpreter/Intel 130 119000 312000

New 0.9.3b
interpreter/Native 184 195000 418000
recompiler/Intel 280 429000 914000

For comparison on an iMacPro
interpreter 80 110000 181000
recompiler 280 1393000 1001000

Thanks again.
