Not that this means that all rest of what Skyhawk posted makes any
sense at all.  I've spent a lot of time programming on "bare metal",
in assembly, Pascal, PL/M, and C (including using coroutines and
various other "multi-thread" constructs with no OS support), and I
really don't see the utility of his initial suggestion.

Great that means you will understand the example below:

mov eax, 0
add eax, 10
mul eax, 4

There is an instruction sequence for you.

This instruction sequence is too long believe it or not.

The mission is to make the CPU break out of instruction 2 and execute 
something else.

How would you do it ?
