Also the reason why I'm asking here about this, is this Mike Stump's post: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2005-04/msg00030.html Especially: ``Currently gcc takes a cache miss every 20 instructions, or some ungodly number, and that really saps performance.'' but I don't know if this is just an 1st April fool joke or the reality and if I understand "cache miss" right and if this is L1 or L2 cache miss.
