Even with the advantages of a 64-bit design, he still wanted to make it more efficient and faster to get spells saved in memory.
Because he was grouping 64 latches together, they'd all have to have their separate pathways, leading to the main pathway to send their information all together as one coherent spell. This was the area he was focusing on streamlining.
And for that, he created the next thing he and Aegis had discussed to address this… A Multiplexer.
Basically, he could squeeze out exponentially more efficiency by arranging each group of 64 latches into a grid format—an 8x8 grid format, and leaving a little bit of space between each for them to be serviced by just two general pathways, vertically and horizontally.
So rather than having each one of the 64 latches send their saved part of a spell to the main stream individually, which would require direct connections to each, he now only needed just one pathway vertically, and one horizontally.
