Can you tell me what NIOS processor is implemented

I am trying to get an estimate of the DMIPS of the NIOS Processor that I am using, Can anyone tell me if it is the /f /s or /e version from the system.h file? It looks like it is being clocked at 12...

It is easier to look at the sopc builder ...

The clocks/instruction are well defined and documented.

However you'll need to write code very carefully in order to avoid pipeline stalls (the same will also apply to x96 processors - except that you don't normally care because they are 'fast enough').
