I'd like to see a page speaking generally about the CPU cache, with additional pages for the x86 (and other architecture) CPU caches. Such a page would discuss what they are, how they work, and tips for writing code to use the cache most effectively.

It probably needs some proof-reading and tidying up, but "CPU_Caches". :)


Cheers,

Very nice Brendan, but could you put an image in there somewhere?
A picture sometimes says more.
