Not that far back: the Pentium required 9-11 cycles to complete a MUL 
instruction compared to 1-3 for XOR (and the like), depending on operand 
locations and widths.

More-or-less, but the former is still slower for wider operands. However, your 
point is well-taken: it needn't be as much a concern in most cases.
