Optimizing RAM-latency dominated applications
Many apparently CPU-limited programs are actually bottlenecked by RAM fetch latency, often because they follow pointer chains in working sets that are much bigger than the CPU's on-chip cache. For example, garbage collectors that identify live objects by tracing inter-object pointers can spend...
