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 ...

A sluggish Mac is usually not a sign that the hardware has suddenly given up, but that cached data and other temporary files have quietly piled up in the background. Clearing those caches is one of ...

Learn how to clear system data on your Mac to free up storage space, improve performance, and optimize your device in just a few steps.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
