Re: [hatari-devel] Issues with cache hits/misses? |

The cache only allocates longs, even if words or misaligned longs are requested. It will pull the entire aligned long - and serves as a partial hit for the next if it overlaps. So for sequential sequences of reads, however misaligned they are, you won't encounter double the miss rate.
I was just about to reply something similar but you were faster :)Yes, AFAIK this is how real CPU works and emulation should emulate this behavior already.
(btw, no need CC me)
