I couldn't find it, but sometime in the last month on a thread here, someone posted a drawing from one of the classic aerodynamics research programs showing a brick shape, then rounding either the front, the back, or both and showing the resultant Cd reduction. Rounding the back produced by far the greatest Cd reduction.
