1 Title: What every programmer should know about memory

4 This LWN__ large article__ looks like a very interesting read (specially for
5 people like me that have a very vague idea about modern memory systems):
7 `Ulrich Drepper`__ recently approached us asking if we would be interested in
8 publishing a lengthy document he had written on how memory and software
9 interact. We did not have to look at the text for long to realize that it
10 would be of interest to many LWN readers. Memory usage is often the
11 determining factor in how software performs, but good information on how to
12 avoid memory bottlenecks is hard to find. This series of articles should
13 change that situation.
15 The original document prints out at over 100 pages. We will be splitting it
16 into about seven segments, each run 1-2 weeks after its predecessor. Once the
17 entire series is out, Ulrich will be releasing the full text.
