-<p>The stalls are less than 1% here, so maybe the smaller executable is paying off in some way. I can't be sure, because the programs being run are very different: <code><span class='Number'>19</span><span class='Value'>.k</span></code> is 10 lines while the others are hundreds of lines long. But I don't have a longer K program handy to test with (and you could always argue the result doesn't apply to Whitney's K anyway). Again, it doesn't matter much: the point is that the absolute most the other interpreters could gain from being more L1-friendly is about 10% on those fairly representative programs.</p>
+<p>The stalls are less than 1% here, but it seems this is largely due to the different nature of the program: <code><span class='Number'>19</span><span class='Value'>.k</span></code> is 10 lines while the others are hundreds of lines long. Now that <a href="../community/aoc.html">Advent of Code</a> 2021 has run, dzaima points out that his solutions are comparable in intent to ngn's, and I measure very close to 0.5% icache stalls in both (27 of 5,404 million cycles in BQN and 34 of 6,600 in ngn/k, problems 23 and 24 omitted). But I don't have a longer K program handy to test with, and you could always argue the result doesn't apply to Whitney's K. Again, it doesn't matter much: the point is that the absolute most the other interpreters could gain from being more L1-friendly is about 10% on those fairly representative programs.</p>
