Hi,

I am looking for a list of cost of instructions expressed in clock cycles.

Like for example:

CMOV <-- takes 1 clock cycle to execute

MOVDQA <-- takes 3 clock cycles to execute.

Is this data available?

As I have checked the Architecture Software Developer manual does not contain this information and I need it because I am developing an application optimized for speed.

Thanks very much in advance.

I would suggest contacting a Field Application Engineer (FAE) trough any of our local Authorized Intel® Distributors, they might be able to provide you that information.
