AMD Athlon™ processor. Subsequent chapters contain more
detailed descriptions of these and other optimizations. The
optimizations in this chapter are divided into two groups and
listed in order of importance.

Group I contains essential optimizations. Users should follow
these critical guidelines closely. The optimizations in Group I
are as follows:

■

Memory Size and Alignment Issues—Avoid memory size
mismatches—Align data where possible

■

■

significantly improve the performance of the AMD Athlon
processor. The optimizations in Group II are as follows:

■

Load-Execute Instruction Usage—Use Load-Execute
instructions—Avoid load-execute floating-point instructions
with integer operands
