If I understand the interpreter correctly (and I probably do not), it's a large
switch statement? Doesn't a switch statement like this have a large % of jump
offset errors, thus, the more items you add to the switch the slower the switch
actually gets?

Now... after saying that, let me prefix it with, I've only done very minimal
reading about how internals of interpreters work. I've written some very small
domain specific interpreters, but nothing at all even close to as advanced as
Euphoria. Therefore, what I understand above may be totally off base.
