The magic word is "amortize": STX $ZP LDX $ZP ; 6 cycles . . . STX $ZP LDX $ZP ; 12 cycles . . . STX $ZP LDX $ZP ; 18 cycles TSX STX $ZP ; 5 cycles . . . TXS TSX ; 9 cycles . . . TXS TSX ; 13 cycles . . . LDX $ZP TXS ; 18 cycles We have already broken even on cycles, and are even ahead by two bytes. If you are just loading X and not also storing it, the divergence is slower but still present. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win a $20,000 Career Makeover at Yahoo!
