On a 486 or Pentium system, you should see a sharp decrease in RAM speed after the 8KB block size. This IS because the internal (level 1) data cache on a 486 or Pentium is 8KB. (Note: some Intel 486/100 chips have a 16KB cache.) IT you have an external (level 2) cache you should also see a large difference between performance at the 32KB and 2048KB block levels. Ons systems with less than 8MB of RAM, WVintu ...
