"div" instructions

Hi all, /f configuration has hardware dvide instrucion. I checked this option, but it seems that compiler does not use "div" instruction. (I cannot find div instruction in *.opjbump file.) ...

I was wondering the same thing. I think that the compiler recongnizes "/" as the hardware divide but don't quote me on that.

I really wish the object dump still had the associated C code that went with the instructions, because I find the new one to be a zoo

of info that I either don't care about or can't figure out what it's telling me.

I turned off the instruction emulation so I'm hoping that "/" called the hardware divide (just got done characterizing my timing).
