Petz, Ali is wrong.

Given that the effect does not occur with the P3, nor the Athlon, it pretty much seals it.

And yes, the memory page size IS much larger than a cache line.

You would also not expect a graph of that shape:

constant high performance, sudden degradation to constant low performance.

If it were memory fragmentation related, you'd expect a slow decay.

And again, how do the P3 and Athlon manage to avoid this?
