+1 for Denis! The book does a great job explaining both “what does it mean for a program to be optimal?” And “what do I type into my terminal to check the performance?”

Of course, it doesn’t cover every possible performance trick. For that, I’d also recommend the Intel Optimization Manual and Johnny’s Software Lab.

Funny, I've just discovered them via a totally different route and read a few articles. Definitely good resource to learn more about low-level CPU code optimization.

Though OP doesn't say what are they interested in. GPU code optimization, for example, is totally different bonkers Universe :D
