<At 6 transistors per cell 32KB of cache has 6*8*32K=1.57M transistors in the array. Of course there are tags, cam, decode, etc but it'll never get you to 3M.>

It's purely an academic argument. I guess the real figure stands somewhere between 1.5M and 3M transistors per 32K, depending on cache tags, supporting logic, etc.
