mark_ablov··on Speeding up a program for a 50 year old processor
Yeah, sorry for that. I spent more time on technical side of article rather than polishing grammar and picking right words. As for non-native speaker it is hard for me to construct sentencies that match natural English speech.

You can run 4004 by very low frequency (much lower than specified 500kHz) and it would work OK.

I also had an idea to overclock i4040 more, but even 740kHz was hard to work with, because I had just 200 stm32 ticks per i4040 sub-cycle to do all I/O logic (RAM/ROM interface for i4040).
