Figure 5-4 “Memory Cache” Submenu
A cache is a fast intermediate memory located between the CPU and the
main memory (DRAM). Repeated memory access operations are executed in
the fast cache, and not in the main memory, provided the feature is enabled.
It may be necessary to disable the cache with certain hardware and software
because intentional program runtimes or delay times are prevented by the fast
cache.
