-RELEVANT OPTIMIZATION ISSUES
-
-EV4
-
-1. This chip has very limited store bandwidth.  The on-chip L1 cache is
-write-through, and a cache line is transfered from the store buffer to the
-off-chip L2 in as much 15 cycles on most systems.  This delay hurts
-mpn_add_n, mpn_sub_n, mpn_lshift, and mpn_rshift.
-
-2. Pairing is possible between memory instructions and integer arithmetic
-instructions.
-
-3. mulq and umulh is documented to have a latency of 23 cycles, but 2 of
-these cycles are pipelined.  Thus, multiply instructions can be issued at a
-rate of one each 21nd cycle.
-
-EV5
-
-1. The memory bandwidth of this chip seems excellent, both for loads and
-stores.  Even when the working set is larger than the on-chip L1 and L2
-caches, the perfromance remain almost unaffected.
-
-2. mulq has a measured latency of 13 cycles and an issue rate of 1 each 8th
-cycle.  umulh has a measured latency of 15 cycles and an issue rate of 1
-each 10th cycle.  But the exact timing is somewhat confusing.
-
-3. mpn_add_n.  With 4-fold unrolling, we need 37 instructions, whereof 12
-   are memory operations.  This will take at least
-	ceil(37/2) [dual issue] + 1 [taken branch] = 20 cycles
-   We have 12 memory cycles, plus 4 after-store conflict cycles, or 16 data
-   cache cycles, which should be completely hidden in the 20 issue cycles.
-   The computation is inherently serial, with these dependencies:
-     addq
-     /   \
-   addq  cmpult
-     |     |
-   cmpult  |
-       \  /
-        or
-   I.e., there is a 4 cycle path for each limb, making 16 cycles the absolute
-   minimum.  We could replace the `or' with a cmoveq/cmovne, which would save
-   a cycle on EV5, but that might waste a cycle on EV4.  Also, cmov takes 2
-   cycles.
-     addq
-     /   \
-   addq  cmpult
-     |      \
-   cmpult -> cmovne
