<Decoder
The front end of the Intel NetBurst micro-architecture has a single decoder that can decode instructions at the maximum rate of one instruction per clock. Some complex instructions must enlist the help of the microcode ROM.>

It says "one instruction per clock" but the clock is running at half the speed. Nowhere does it say what the decode clock value is.

There are _three_ clock domains in P4 not two.
