P4 HT 0kB Cache?!?Forum: Other Help Topics Topic: P4 HT 0kB Cache?!? started by: speedstar Posted by speedstar on April 04 2007,19:35
hellowhen DSL is starting it shows: Processor 0 is Intel Pentium 4 3.200 MHz 0kB Cache Processor 1 is Intel Pentium 4 3.200 MHz 0kB Cache when i try "cat /proc/cpuinfo": ... Cache: 16kB (there should be L2 as far as i know) ... My CPU is P4 HT "640" 2 MB Cache. Everest and CPU-Z under windows shows cache L2 correctly. whats wrong then? is it mean, that cache of my CPU is not used under Linux?!? Posted by Juanito on April 05 2007,03:41
I see something similar in DSL where the cpu cache is shown (incorrectly) as 64MB - in DSL-N it is shown (correctly) as 2048MB.Since my machine appears to run at the same speed with DSL & DSL-N, you could say that the cache is treated similarly by the two kernels - whether that means it is used to the full extent is difficult to say... |
