It's not quite that slow. IIRC even with a TLB miss main memory access is like 150-200 cycles. The only time you should have latencies in the range of thousands of cycles is on a page fault.

Good point, my mind is still stuck in the P4 era where memory latencies were much higher.

Looks like it ranges from 60->100ns (page 22). So with my rough estimates that translates to 200->300 cycles for a 3.33ghz processor (pretty much exactly what you are saying).
