yeah, ferroelectric RAM (F-RAM) has been a thing for a while. it's persistent (nonvolatile), faster than DRAM, and more write endurant than flash. it's not some top secret government technology either -- you can just go buy it on digikey right now. the problem is that 512KB F-RAM modules are $20 a chip and ain't nobody building a computer out of THAT
