An added complication in determining the steady state is that
branch instructions issue on port1 and that the issue heuristic
is "psuedo FIFO" favoring back-to-back u-ops.

Replicate the eight arithmetic instructions until the block
is somewhat less than 8K total. You will quickly learn how
crucial the branch instruction is in determining the steady
state.
