   In principle, I would say that higher execution speed equals more   
   grenn-ness. Less time spent dissipating heat means less energy   
   consumed.   
      
   So the question actually is the same as ever: how to we make code   
   run fast?   
      
   - How do we squeeze more meaning into fewer/faster instructions?   
   - How do we make code so small that it fits in caches?   
   - How do we organize code execution in such a way that cache   
    stalls are minimized? (Locality)
