I was talking about the sequence "OR A \ SBC HL, DE", which
takes three bytes, just like a single CALL instruction. And
it's certainly faster than calling the actual CPHLDE rom
routine. Forget about counting clocks, it makes no sense to
say things like a CALL takes 17 clocks, because a
subroutine contains at least some sort of return...
