Instruction prediction based upon confidence and priority levels. A filtering effect is achieved by providing for prediction of an instruction by one of a plurality of predictors having (1) a confidence level satisfying a predetermined threshold value and (2) the highest priority level among the plurality of predictors. A default predictor is provided should no predictor satisfy this criteria. Efficient use of predictor memory is achieved through selective updating of predictors.
