Ask HN: What are some examples of beautiful x86 assembly code?

I've been bumping into a lot of x86 assembly lately and, unrelated, recently read about the stellar reputation of SQLite's code base.

This got me thinking: what are some examples of high-quality and/or beautiful x86 assembly? In fact, what about for other processor families as well?
