 * Calculating MINSET, assuming 10% cache-miss on non-loop code:
 * Overhead =~ 18 instructions => 28 (30) cycles
 * Byte set =~ 12 (24) cycles/word for 08M44 (08V11)
 * Word set =~ 3 (5) cycles/word for 08M44 (08V11)
 * If I-cache-miss nears 0, MINSET ==> 4 bytes; otherwise, times are:
 * breakeven (MEM) = 28 / (12 - 3) =~ 3 words
 * breakeven (VME) = 30 / (24 - 5)  =~ 1.5 words
 * Since the overhead is pessimistic (worst-case alignment), and many calls
 * will be for well-aligned data, and since Word-set at least leaves
 * the set in the cache, we shade these values (6-12) down to 8 bytes
