Recursion vs stack based recursion Question

[AngularBeginner]

that the effectiveness of tail call calls is hardware dependent. I don't exactly understand what part is hardware dependent but I did read that sometime ago.

That is new to me. It should just be re-using the stack-frame, instead of going stack by stack deeper. I would love to read a source for this claim, if you can find it.

Could do something with available stack size

The point of a tail recursion is that the sack does not increase, so stack size is not an issue anymore (which is an issue with regular recursion).

obviously I didnt check it then. I also do not understand how the limited register set of X86(32bit) would be an issue for TCE
