clocks n. processor logic cycles, so called because each generally
corresponds to one clock pulse in the processor's timing. the relative
execution times of instructions on a machine are usually discussed in
clocks rather than absolute fractions of a second; one good reason for
this is that clock speeds for various models of the machine may increase
as technology improves, and it is usually the relative times one is
interested in when discussing the instruction set. compare cycle,
jiffy.
