Hi All,

A couple of questions which I hope are appropriate for this list:

1. Is there a document that details each VM instruction and the time it takes 
in cycles on
    a particular architecture?

    I ask because often on the http://www.masm32.com/board/index.php forum they 
provide
    CPU cycle timings for x86 instructions enabling you to modify code for 
better performance.

    I'd like to use this information when generating bytecode for my Smalltalk 
implementation
    for the JVM.

2. Would anyone else find this information useful ?

Rgs, James.
