"Ulrich Drepper [the gnu libc project leader] recently approached us [LWN] asking if we would be interested in publishing a lengthy document he had written on how memory and software interact. Memory usage is often the determining factor in how software performs, but good information on how to avoid memory bottlenecks is hard to find. This article is the first in a serie of articles (the original has over 100 pages) that will get published on LWN weekly. Once the entire series is out, Ulrich will be releasing the full text."

I can't wait for the rest of the paper to be published. This was a very interesting read. Memory management is essential to any good programmer, it's what seperates the hard-core coder from the weekend enthusiasts who slap stuff together in .NET and call themselves a "programmer".
