None of the tricks in this article get verified. It is totally solemn drivel.
Interesting and surprisingly, there are numerous praising comments here.

FWIW, which may be not much - I had codex cli try to verify the results. On my M2 Macbook Air only the first example (False Sharing) did anything - a 23x speedup compared to the article's 6x speedup. All the others didn't produce any speedup at all.
Of course I didn't verify the results I got either - I'm not about to spend hours trying to figure out if this is just slop. But I think it is.
Could you share the benchmark source code of the first example?
Here's the one that showed a lot more speedup than the article:

Looks like the LLM invented somewhat different test for it than the article had. I tried again and have this with the same data structure as in the article:

That gave similar results to the article.
All the other tests still give little-to-no speedup on my machine.
