Cacheprof, by Julian Seward, the author of bzip2:

http://www.cacheprof.org/

"Cacheprof will run your program, simulating a cache of your choice,
 and will annotate each line of source code with the number of memory
 references and the number of cache misses caused by that line.  It
 will also print summaries per-procedure, and for the program as a
 whole.

 Cacheprof works on PCs running Linux, in conjunction with the GNU
 toolchain.  It's designed to be as non-disruptive as possible.  You
 don't need to modify or reinstall existing gcc/g++/g77's.  Usage is
 very simple: place the command cacheprof in front of all compile
 commands, for example: cacheprof gcc -O -o myprog myprog.c."
