CISC instructions like add to memory usually are inefficient, of course in
the context of a CISC machine, they may be no more inefficient than any
other instructions on the machine, but I think you will find that most
machines having add to memory cannot execute this operation any faster
than a modern RISC can get the same effect with a sequence of instructions.
