--- Comment #28 from cand at gmx.com ---
> the other one involves 32-bit src and 128-bit dest so i'll need to think about it.

Please tell me which part is the hangup, so I'll know for future instrs.
- implementation complexity
- complexity when trying to write 128b in one clock (so do it more, 128: two
clocks, <= 64: one clock, 256: 4 clocks)
- writing that much in one instr in general

For this specific case, 32-to-32 would have use, but not the majority.
Handwaving 40% would be 32-to-32, where most would be 32-to-16 (aka read 32,
write 64). I'd still like to have 32-to-32, but depends on what the tradeoff
is.
