Hey, an assembly question.  Could be offtopic but how I got there is not.

I was looking at some gcc generated assembly code and the compiler made big
use of the opcodes sarl and sall.  Are these faster then bit shifts? and
another thing, what does the EA byte stand for? (its not supposed to be
eax!)

Thanks (((--Dan|Gold--)))
