| 11. | In direct memory access transfers the device would send a " request ".
|
| 12. | Software transactional memory borrows from atomic transactions and applies them to memory accesses.
|
| 13. | This improvement overcomes long floating point delays and memory accesses.
|
| 14. | Such machines effectively bypass most memory accesses to the stack.
|
| 15. | :: : That is what I figured-a memory access issue.
|
| 16. | Since about 30 % of memory accesses are stored this solution is severely limited.
|
| 17. | Later architectures have paged memory access, allowing non-contiguous address spaces.
|
| 18. | Note that by definition byte memory accesses are always aligned.
|
| 19. | The core memory access time was 1.8 to 2 �s.
|
| 20. | Indirect addressing does carry a performance penalty due to the extra memory access involved.
