TRACKING WITH CLOSEUPS: Predicting the Performance of Intel Microprocessor Cores through Simulation
Researchers have developed a new simulator to predict the throughput of basic blocks of all Intel Core μarchs released in the last decade, demonstrating to be more accurate than the predictions of state-of-the-art tools by more than an order of magnitude.https://t.co/83UDBQSchX pic.twitter.com/U22j4rZjnJ

Here is the paper, “Accurate Throughput Prediction of Basic Blocks on Recent Intel Microarchitectures”. This paper provides insight into just what is going on inside these processors, which work nothing like the programmer's view of the x86 instruction set.
