Joseph, <Out-of-order processors (such as Pentium, PA-RISC, 21264 and higher) can mask latency penalties
from memory accesses by issuing load instructions in advance (instructions ordering rearranged on the fly, this cannot be accomplished by ILP).>

In IA-64, this is covered by speculation. I can see some cases where dynamic instruction reordering might be better than static reordering, but not in this case.
