ive always wondered what more complex emulators do, for things like the ps2 or wii
you can't just have a massive array of memory when your memory space is like 1gb

they emulate the MMU found in the real hardware, so you allocate memory by the page and do address translation

python question:

which would be faster: iterating into a list but having to check the list each time to avoid duplicates -or- creating a tuple but then having to split it to put the second half into said list ?

first question: does it really matter how fast it is?

if not, pick the one with clearer code that makes sense to you
