Ulrich Drepper, the libc maintainer, has published a paper about "What every programmer should know about memory: http://people.redhat.com/drepper/cpumemory.pdf
(published November 21, 2007 ... maybe some of you already have seen it, but I stumbled upon it just today)
It's a bit long, so I did read it trough yet, but looks worth of fast glimpse at least, if not of full study.
