A MEMBAR dropped into the pipeline, when nothing is speculative, takesI am wondering if you were ever aware of the "danger zone" wrt putting a MEMBAR instruction in a memory delay slot over on the SPARC? The docs explicitly said not to do it. I guess it can cause some interesting memory order "issues" that might allow a running system to last for say, five years before crashing at a random time... Yikes!
no more time than an integer ADD. Only when there is speculation does
it have to take time to relax the speculation.
