Part 2 looks at the tradeoffs between program and data cache optimizations, and shows how to choose the best compromise. As we saw in the first two parts of this series, cache optimization is often ...

The dynamic interplay between processor speed and memory access times has rendered cache performance a critical determinant of computing efficiency. As modern systems increasingly rely on hierarchical ...

Commentary - Given two competitive sites that are identical in practically every other way, the faster site will be more successful. Site speed is associated, in the mind of the end user, with a ...

If multiple devices, such as the CPU and peripherals, access the same cacheable memory region, cache and memory can become incoherent. This is illustrated in Figure 7. Suppose the CPU accesses a ...

Java compilers take center stage in this second article in the JVM performance optimization series. Eva Andreasson introduces the different breeds of compiler and compares performance results from ...

Can Google web cache work for your competitive advantage? Certainly “yes”, if you know how to handle it. In the digital world, it functions as human memory, only open to everyone. And if you learn how ...

The Samsung Galaxy S21 is one of the most popular Android phones on the market. Over time, the cache on the S21 can build up and cause issues like slow performance, app crashes, and battery drain.

A slow Chromecast or Google TV device can turn even the simplest viewing session into a frustrating experience. Laggy navigation, delayed app loading, and sluggish search results often come from the ...
