For Forth, a data stack with 32 cells will still occasionally overflow
on naturally recursive tasks. If you can work around that (either the
programmer, the compiler, or the run-time system avoids or deals with
the stack overflow), then 32 cells is plenty, 16 cells won't cause
many overflows, and Chuck Moore decided to go with 6 in IIRC the C18;
not sure what's the number on the GA parts.
For Forth, you want a data stack and a return stack; if you have FP,
also an FP stack. For locals you may be able to make do with the
return stack, although alignment concerns are an issue if you support
FP locals; in that case, possibly a separate locals stack.
