Integer instruction timings:
n - generally refers to a number of repeated counts
m - in a jump or call;
286: bytes in next instruction
386/486: number of components
(each byte of opcode) + 1 (if immed data) + 1 (if displacement)
EA = cycles to calculate the Effective Address
8088/8086:
base = 5 BP+DI or BX+SI = 7 BP+DI+disp or BX+SI+disp = 11
index = 5 BX+DI or BP+SI = 8 BX+DI+disp or BP+SI+disp = 12
disp = 6 segment override = +2
286 - 486:
base+index+disp = +1 all others, no penalty
instruction length:
The byte count includes the opcode length and length of any required
displacement or immediate data. If the displacement is optional, it
is shown as d() with the possible lengths in parentheses. If the
immediate data is optional, it is shown as i() with the possible
lengths in parentheses.
