 Anything you port it to.
 Seriously, I bet *someone* out there will have a crack at it.  It can't

 That's an interesting question.  I can't think of that many machines
 with a hardware ring architecture, and it's not something that can be
 easily faked with more traditional architectures.  It would be a fairly
 invasive "port". 
It pains me to say it, but you could just throw CPU horsepower and
memory at the problem.
