John, Yes, there are pseudo-ops that total and reset the times; others that specify which particular CPU you have (for instance, the CMOS 68705 has a different cycle time for many instructions than does the less expensive NMOS part). You can also use the counter value in math expressions, and assign it to other variables, so that a loop count can be done and then you can pick back up with the count from the previous instructions above the loop. It's a nice feature. –Ben
