I believe the book I had in mind was The Software Optimization Cookbook,
by Richard Gerber, Intel Press,  I actually have a copy (too bad you're
in New Jersey), and though I have not yet gotten around to reading it, I
would point out that even though one of the chapters is explicitly about
memory, the others constantly bring in memory issues.

For instance, one thing I should have mentioned yesterday in the context
of your loop question is loop unrolling.  You may have seen this before
if you've read anything about pipelines, but it would be especially
useful from the point of view of minimizing cache misses.
