Not a single "hot air" joke? Not sure to be impressed everyone's more mature than me or disappointed.
Ah I see, I assumed it was a penalty for only mis-guessed, not the number of cycles required to evaluate the statement. Thanks!
Is this correct? "Without branch prediction, we then expect the “average” instruction to take branch_pct * 1 + non_branch_pct * 20 = 0.8 * 1 + 0.2 * 20 = 0.8 + 4 = 4.8 cycles" other than branch_pct and non_branch_pct…
