The earlier PA-7100 is definitely super-scalar.
"The processor [ PA-7100 ] can execute one integer instruction
and one floating point operation instruction in the same
cycle. The I-cache has enough bandwidth to support
the continuous execution of two instructions per cycle."
Clipped from COMPCON '92 Proceedings, "A High-Speed Superscalar PA-RISC
Processor," DeLano, Walker, Yetter, and Forsyth.
