I collected such wisdom some time ago and published it as "FORTRAN
Optimization", Academic Press, 1985, ISBN 0-12-492482.4. It contains an
extensive bibliography.


It discusses in gory detail not only the examples given by the poster, but
also the I/O list optimization problem that featured in this news group
recently.


A shorter summary appears as Chapter 11 of "Effective FORTRAN 77", Oxford
U. Press, 1985 (busy year), ISBN 0-19-853709-3.


    Hope this helps,
