That's a bold claim; Sure it is theoretically possible, to have two versions of the same C program take either 500ms or 8ms purely due to memory layout.

But I would like to challenge you to actually do it! I.e. same number of calculations, on same amount of data and a factor of 60 run time difference, with only the memory layout as actual difference between the two implementations.

Up for it?
