 ## Byte-swapping Mux
 
+gate count for 4:1 MUX is estimated at 40 gates.  8x 40 gates for a total of 320 gates to provide aligned byteswapping 64 bit.

+per source and dest operand, 320 gates required.  if two source operands (ALU pipeline, Logical pipeline) this totals 960 gates (per Function Unit).  3 operands (madd) is 1280 gates.
