Tony & Intel Investors - Intel is Contemplating up to 2 MegaByte L2 caches - ON CHIP - on some of its high end processors for next year. techweb.com " The new chips include as many as eight varieties of the Pentium II, including Intel's first processors made in 0.18-micron technology and slated to ship in the second half with speeds well above 500 MHz and integrated L2 caches of up to 2 Mbytes in some cases. At the low end Intel plans to roll out in the second half of next year its first updates of the StrongARM 1100 and 1500 chips acquired from Digital Equipment Corp., aimed at embedded applications in network peripherals, set-top boxes and handheld PCs. "We don't consider the StrongARM a competitor to the Intel architecture, but a complement to it," Barrett said." This could result in some spectacular performance increases for the high-end segment targeted by this level of integration. Paul
