struct CacheInfo;

Cache size and behaviour

size_t size;

Size of the cache, in kilobytes, per CPU.

For L1 unified (data + code) caches, this size is half the physical size.

(we don't halve it for larger sizes, since normally

data size is much greater than code size for critical loops).

ubyte associativity;

Number of ways of associativity, eg:

• 1 = direct mapped
• 2 = 2-way set associative
• 3 = 3-way set associative
• ubyte.max = fully associative

uint lineSize;

Number of bytes read into the cache when a cache miss occurs.

CacheInfo[5] datacache;

Scheduled for deprecation. Please use dataCaches instead.

pure nothrow @nogc @property @trusted const(CacheInfo)[5] dataCaches();

The data caches. If there are fewer than 5 physical caches levels,

the remaining levels are set to size_t.max (== entire memory space)

Optimisation hints for assembly code.

For forward compatibility, the CPU is compared against different

microarchitectures. For 32-bit x86, comparisons are made against

the Intel PPro/PII/PIII/PM family.

The major 32-bit x86 microarchitecture 'dynasties' have been:

• Intel P6 (PentiumPro, PII, PIII, PM, Core, Core2).
• AMD Athlon (K7, K8, K10).
• Intel NetBurst (Pentium 4, Pentium D).
• In-order Pentium (Pentium1, PMMX, Atom)

Other early CPUs (Nx586, AMD K5, K6, Centaur C3, Transmeta,

Cyrix, Rise) were mostly in-order.

Some new processors do not fit into the existing categories:

• Intel Atom 230/330 (family 6, model 0x1C) is an in-order core.
• Centaur Isiah = VIA Nano (family 6, model F) is an out-of-order core.

Within each dynasty, the optimisation techniques are largely

identical (eg, use instruction pairing for group 4). Major

instruction set improvements occur within each dynasty.

Does this CPU perform better on AMD K7 code than PentiumPro..Core2 code?
