#geshi(c++){{

    a[i] = a[i] + b[i];

-''__builtin_prefetch'' takes 3 parameters, which later 2 are optional
-the first parameter is the data to be prefetched
-the second parameter is 0 or 1, compile time constant
--0 is to read the data (which is default)
--1 is to write
-the third parameter is locality 0,1,2 or 3 and has to be compile time constant
--0 is no temporal locality.  it will be purged after access
--3 is strong temporal locality.  It'll try to keep the data in cache as much as possible(default)
