<what affects the magnitude of your "delay" (T) ?? ... Is it the "process thing" ??> Yes, the T is the process. Now you begin to understand little by little: N sequentionally connected gates, and you have the tick time of T*N. Now the question for you, our greatest "intellectual": how many of those T must be within the K6 critical pipeline stage (when the whole job is done in four ticks only), and now many are in Pentium-II (where the pipeline is partitioned into 12-14 simple pieces)? Please demonstrate your "intellectual prowess". P.S. I hope you remember some basics of English and realize that a word in "" usually acquires opposite meaning. Therefore I read your words about my "intellectual weakness" as a compliment, right?
