    I am afraid that there is no program to do that. You can change the ROM
access speed on the Arch 'cause the MEMC chip provides the capability; the
RAM access is hardwired in the sense that it is determined by the main clock
of the system (which is 24 MHz I think and the MEMC divides it by three to
provide the processor clock). If you crank up the master clock, it might work -
or might not.
