Coding > Code execution speed - EWRAM vs VRAM

Which is slower, executing code stored in EWRAM, or executing code stored in VRAM?

IWRAM of course :)

But VRAM would be the faster of the 2 mentioned even with the occasional waitstate issue.

Heh, reminds me of the Xbox and Xbox 360 consoles, where VRAM is used as the system's main RAM :-)
