#140179 - One cycle == one cycle???
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Christoph said:
Probably "processor cycles", the duration of which depends on what -clocker you use (1-clocker = 1 clock period, 12-clocker = 12 clock periods).

That sounds reasonable. But I don't know this: are all derivatives created equal? In other words, do all derivatives take the same number of processor cycles to execute a given instruction? Or would we still have to specify a particular derivative for the purposes of a contest?
