yes, artificial, but, nevertheless, quite important.
if algorithm uses more-or-less big quantities of memory that does not fit in
processor cache, and if it doesn't use some complex computations, it's
highly likely that it will run as fast as memory bandwidth allows, less
depending on clock speed of processor.

thus, if you overclock your processor, but your memory is running slow, for
some applications you can have poor performance
