- tojileon 19y ago@dfranke: Does this Aaron Swartz post answer your question? http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/smartabstractions http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/smartabstractions
- dfranke 19y agoI agree with Aaron, but I don't think he'd go this far. Programmers concerned with performance need to understand caching and the cost of a cache miss. That's about on the same level as PB and his read heads. The level of detail in this article goes well beyond that and is unnecessary.
- webnrrd2k 19y agoI was expecting more about the use of heap space and stack space. That would be more useful to know about for a programmer.
