Is there a general guide on how to fix all the little nits that pop up
when you put

(declare (optimize speed))

in your code?

I'd like to read up on how to correctly fix/declare/spec my code so the
compiler can do its job.

Read this post and its surrounding thread:

It contains pointers to some papers you should read.

Very interesting. I was about to post questions in the same area, but
they are solved by the article about the fannkuch algorithm. I deal
mostly with integer stuff, not floating points.
