yes, 1/4 ratio !
68k, HC11 etc. is far away from that.
PIC need to read the data into the W-register and then store it in RAM. Which
means, you need 2*4 clock-cycles to store data from a inport in RAM.

oaw.. thats really good. Where can I read about that microprocessor ?
I have AVR's Risc Microcontroller data book, maybe its in there. : )
