-====== Optimizing for the NEC V30MZ CPU ======
-While the V30MZ is an 80186-compatible CPU, its instruction timings differ wildly from common expectations and are more reflective of its 1990s-era design:
-  * ''MUL'' is very fast on this CPU, taking 3-4 cycles. As a result, "shift plus add" ladders will almost always be equal in performance on slower.
-  * ''XLAT'' takes 5 cycles. Many simple CPU operations (such as ''SHR reg, 4'' or ''MUL reg'' - both taking 3 cycles) can actually be faster!
