Given the high rate of memory errors in DRAM, what steps

Back in 1985 I was specifying 72-bit words to accomodate 64-bit data words and eight bits of error-detection and correction data/checksum.
That was built into every memory access - it didn't slow down the memory much, but it made it a lot more reliable.
