Does it really hurt performance for the CPU to keep track of the fact that
an instruction has to be restarted after an interrupt?
I should have been clearer, it's not just an interrupt. The CPU does
some maximum amount of work for the instruction, and sets the
condition code if it didn't do the whole string. Maybe it was an
interrupt, maybe it just hit the limit. Many other instructions that
process long chunks of data work the same way.
On the old VAX, there was a processor status bit called “First Part Done”,
Actually that was the PDP-6 and -10 for the byte instructions,
