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

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lists.tuxfamily.org/hatari-devel Archives ]


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)
