You are correct. It's on the same piece of silicon NOW. My original point is 
still good. I don't understand why there is a focus on a minor detail of the 
physical layout of the chip.

Correcting my original statement.
"The CPACF is a PIECE OF THE CP that runs in lockstep with the CP that invokes 
it. So, it is does cost general CP but much less than implementing it in 
millicode."
