PB - RE: "Advanced Transfer Cache
256KB integrated L2 [Other Cascades products with larger cache]
Full speed 256 bit wide data bus
8-way associativity

Advanced System Buffering
6 fill buffers (up from 4)
8 bus queue entries (up from 4)
4 writeback buffers (up from 1)

High throughput on read/store operations (11.7GB/s at 733MHz)
Improved cache hit rate on read/store operations
>4X lower latency on read/store operations
Sustained bandwidth >1GB/s with 133MHz bus"

I thought you spoke English!

Translation for us folks not in the business please.

All I know is "8-way associativity" is higher compared to Intel's L1 cache.

And "Sustained bandwidth >1GB/s with 133MHz bus" doesn't matter much when combined with i810E.
