[comp.lang.forth] Execution time of NEXT

mdg@smegma.UUCP (Marc de Groot) (09/28/88)

A few years ago, when I shared a house with a roommate and several LSI-11's,
we determined that NEXT took 2 fewer clock ticks than a JSR and a RTN combined.
(This is on the LSI-11.)

Does anyone out there have similar statistics for other processors?
