It should take at least as many fields as the number of clock cycles in the shortest possible load/test/branch sequence. And you'll have to be very careful to "stagger" the timing of the test in succesive frames.

Actually, it can be done in log2 of the number of cycles, but the
principle is the same.  ;-)

Each edge poll can cut the cycle uncertainty in half.
