常见小问题2(国外英语资料) The second level CACHE is also called L2 CACHE, which is the buffer memory inside the processor, which works as well as memory. How does it come about? To ascend to the last century 80 s, as a result of the processor speed faster and faster, slowly, the speed of the processor needs to read data from memory demand is higher and higher. However, the speed of memory increases slowly, and the memory price of high-speed read-write data is too high to be used in large quantities. From the perspective of cost performance, such as Intel processor design production company thought of a way, is to use a small amount of memory and a large number of high-speed low memory used in combination, jointly provide data to the processor. This is the best way to achieve performance and cost. And the high speed of memory because it is in the position of the between the CPU and memory, and temporary storage of data, so is called a buffer memory, hereinafter referred to as cache. role Its role as temporary pile goods in a warehouse, goods from transport vehicles down temporary piled up in the buffer zone, and then move to the internal storage area for a long time. The goods are stored in this area for a short period of time, which is a temporary depot. The first cache was only one level, and then the processor speed went up again, and the first level cache was not enough, and the secondary cache was added. The second level cache is slower than a first-level cache, but more capacity, which is primarily a place where data is exchanged between primary and memory. Now, in order to adapt to a faster processor P4EE, there have been three caches, its capacity is larger, the speed relative to the second level cache is slower, but memory can be faster than the first. The advent of the CPU processor cache greatly enhance operational efficiency, the area is stored in the CPU frequency to use data, so the larger the processor cache efficiency is higher, at the same time due to a lot of
