182 Prefetching:
183
184 Should prefetch objects before marking, i.e. if marking a cell, we
185 should prefetch the car, and then mark the cdr. This will improve CPU
186 cache misses, because the car is more likely to be in cache when we
187 finish the cdr.
188
189 See http://www.hpl.hp.com/techreports/2000/HPL-2000-99.pdf, reducing
190 garbage collector cache misses.
191
192 Prefetch is supported on GCC >= 3.1
193
194 (Some time later.)
195
196 Tried this with GCC 3.1.1 -- the time differences are barely measurable.
197 Perhaps this would work better with an explicit markstack?
