If you like this stuff data oriented design[1] is a nice framework that isn't arch specific(but can be extended to be if you need to make more gains that are arch aware). Back when I worked in the PS3/X360 days engines written for PS3 had better cache locality(SPUs forced hard limits vs hitting a cache miss) and ran faster on the X360 as result well when ported. You can do do fun things like using radix sort with bucket sizes that line up well with L2/L3 caches(saw a multi order of magnitude speedup for that one) and data aware layouts that net 10-30x speedups for the same data. Many RMDBs use similar approaches from what I understand as well. [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-oriented_design https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-oriented_design
