1 | This directory contains mpn functions optimized for MIPS3. Example of | ||
2 | processors that implement MIPS3 are R4000, R4400, R4600, R4700, and R8000. | ||
3 | |||
4 | RELEVANT OPTIMIZATION ISSUES | ||
5 | |||
6 | 1. On the R4000 and R4400, branches, both the plain and the "likely" ones, | ||
7 | take 3 cycles to execute. (The fastest possible loop will take 4 cycles, | ||
8 | because of the delay insn.) | ||
9 | |||
10 | On the R4600, branches takes a single cycle | ||
11 | |||
12 | On the R8000, branches often take no noticable cycles, as they are | ||
13 | executed in a separate function unit.. | ||
14 | |||
15 | 2. The R4000 and R4400 have a load latency of 4 cycles. | ||
16 | |||
17 | 3. On the R4000 and R4400, multiplies take a data-dependent number of | ||
18 | cycles, contrary to the SGI documentation. There seem to be 3 or 4 | ||
19 | possible latencies. | ||
