My idea with real time was, that I want to be able to predict the time a
program needs to run in the worsest case. Using assicoation lists at the
hardware level for variable bindings, this would be difficult. But you are
right, perhaps this could be optimized later and first I should do the
prototype, without too much thoughts about the speed.
