How much do I lose when it comes down to accessing 16bit instead of 32bit and will this result in stability problems? So far, I have no problems...
the 16 MB on the mainboard will be faster
and any accelarator board with own memory will be a lot faster, so better try to get cheap 68040 board without cpu

16-bit ram halfs the transfer rate, this ram will be slower than your chipmem.

just use SysSpeed or similar to check

I think this Zorro-stuff is irrelevant because the memory is mapped into the address space, but I'm not sure.
