Instruction Execution Times

Memory Usage,
C–12
Instructions Having Indexed Addresses
For each operand having an indexed address, add 30 microseconds to the
execution time for a true instruction. For example, if a MOV instruction has
an indexed address for both the source and destination, the execution time
when the instruction is true is 14 + 30 + 30 = 74 microseconds.
Instructions Having M0 and M1 Data File Addresses
For each bit or word instruction, add 1157 microseconds to the execution
time. For each multiple-word instruction, add 950 microseconds plus 400
microseconds per word.

For the multi–word instruction above, add 950 microseconds plus 400
microseconds per word. In this example, 34 words are copied from #B:3.0 to
M0:1.0. Add 950 + (400 x 34) = 14550 microseconds to the execution time
listed on page C–10. This comes to 471 (calculated from page C–10 table)
plus 14550 = 15021 microseconds total, or 15.0 milliseconds.
