I love these tiny explainers! Even if I already know what it's about, having a confirmation helps throughout reading.

"mmap, without the fog"

I don't know if this is just me being paranoid, but every time I see a phrase like this in an article I feel like it's co-written by an LLM and it makes me mad...

Instruction pipelining and this is exactly why I wish we still have the time to go back to "it is exactly as it is", think the 6502 or any architecture that does not pretend/map/table/proxy/ringaway anything.

That, but a hell lot of it with fast interconnect!
