- It's a good programming practice to organize code so the
expected case is executed without a jump since the actual
jump takes longer to execute than falling through the test.
- see JCXZ and JMP for their respective timings
JCXZ/JECXZ - Jump if Register (E)CX is Zero
Usage: JCXZ label
JECXZ label (386+)
Modifies flags: None
Causes execution to branch to "label" if register CX is zero. Uses
unsigned comparision.

no jump 6 4 5 5
JMP - Unconditional Jump
Usage: JMP target
Modifies flags: None
Unconditionally transfers control to "label". Jumps by default
are within -32768 to 32767 bytes from the instruction following
the jump. NEAR and SHORT jumps cause the IP to be updated while FAR
jumps cause CS and IP to be updated.
