Instruction count (IC) or instruction path length is the number of ISA instructions required to execute a fixed program or workload.
Overview[edit]
The total number of instructions that get executed for a particular task, algorithm, workload, or program is referred to the instruction count. The instruction count forms the basis for various performance aspects of the microprocessor such as instructions per cycle (IPC) or cycles per instruction (CPI).
