Consider instead that '*p' is just the name given a register's
contents. Neither 'i' nor '9' are processor internal. Both are
external to the cpu. The memory reference for 'i' is source code
implicit, the memory reference for '*p' is source code explicit.
True, but given caching effects, it's hard to see how *p could be less
expensive than 'i'.
