I posted such an abstract, right after saying that the information is
in the Intel manuals.

If you go the Intel site, you will find it in no time: there's a small
number of manuals, one of them is called "Code Optimizations Guide".
Can't miss it.

You get the best help we can provide, and it's all free.  Flaming us
because you expect a higher level of service won't work, because
people here don't serve you (or anybody), they just try to help you as
