Jim,

The article is ok as far as it goes. It is nevertheless hardly definitive and its discussion of DRAM latency and its causes is wholly missing. It does not discuss the following latency issues:

There are lots of factors which impact average latency. The only really accurate way to measure it is to run cycle accurate trace simulations or make actual system measurements.

Dave B recently posted a link to an Intel presentation which showed that until the bus gets saturated, SDRAM system latencies are much lower than DRDRAM.
