Steve,

If you are going to have a latency of 2 in your L1 cache, I can't agree with the strategy.

It reduces performance / clock, but allows faster clock speeds.

(btw: this is precisely what I meant by slowing the processor down)

I guess it depends on your definition of "slowing the processor down"
