Jim, <What's the total on die cache on a Thunderbird? A Floppermine?>

Coppermine has 256K of on-die cache. Thunderbird? I don't know; I don't think AMD revealed a cache size yet. The 4:1 rule of L2:L1 cache sizes would mean that T-bird needs 512K. But then again, I guess AMD can get away with 256K and still have a very strong performer.

I don't know if T-bird L2 size has been made public yet or not.

Flopper has 256K L2.
