The Intel Optimization Reference Guide says: In Intel Atom microarchitecture, the address generation unit assumes that the segment base will be 0 by default. Non-zero segment base will cause load and store operations to experience a delay. - If the segment base isn't aligned to a cache line boundary, the max throughput of memory operations is reduced to one [e]very 9 cycles. [...] Assembly/Compiler Coding Rule 15. (H impact, ML generality) For Intel Atom processors, use segments with base set to 0 whenever possible; avoid non-zero segment base address that is not aligned to cache line boundary at all cost. We can't avoid having a non-zero base for the stack-protector segment, but we can make it cache-aligned.
