ABSTRACT:
A loop detector with an array to store a counter of loop iterations, where the number of entries in the array may be, for example, smaller than the number of entries in the loop detector. Entries in the array may, for example, be associated with more than one entry in the loop detector. The array may store, for example, a counter of speculative iterations of a loop or, for example, a number of actual iterations of a loop.
