James,

I have done Winstone97 benchmark on Cyrix MX-PR233 with L2 cache enabled and disabled. Even with the most efficient L1 cache architecture from Cyrix MX, the system performance difference could be greater than 10%.

In the following report, the OEM quoted that the performance difference between the L2 cacheless and cache PII could be less than ten percent. With Intel inferior memory architectures, do you believe that it is a correct statement?

Currently, the Pentium II processors are standard with 512 Kbytes of cache. VARs will see some slower performance from chips with no L2 cache, depending on the application being run. By removing the L2 cache on a Socket 7-designed motherboard, a processor's speed could be degraded by as much as 15 percent, said motherboard OEMs. But sources said the Pentium II without cache may be slowed down by less than 10 percent.
