How big is the L2 cache area in P4?
Thinking again about "true measure of CPU performance"
and "only Intel uses standard frequency" to market
their CPU, I run into this Intel's paper:
intel.com
It says that 0.18um (100nm Leff) technology produces
SRAM that operates at barely 1GHz. How come P4 can have
"full speed" caches if it is technologically
impossible to run 0.18 SRAM at 2GHz, according to
Intel's own presentations? Is every cache 2:1 interleaved
in P4?
Even newest 0.13/70 Intel's SRAM operates at no higher
than 1.6GHz.

As usual, just curious.
