Cache Simulator Technical Questions
Given a Cache simulator that is set to parce through very largetrace files. (Trace file 1 = 70MB and Trace file 2 = 300 MB).Assume replacement policy is LRU unless statedotherwise. answer the following...
a. How will the hit-miss ratio of these workloads change withthe cache size? What will happen as the cache size gets bigger?(8KB, 16KB, ...)
b. How will the hit-miss ratio of these work loads changebetween using write-back and write-through? Explain.
c. How will the hit-miss ratio of these workloads changewith the associativity? What will happen as the associativity getslarger? (2,4,8,16...)
d. Repeat part B but explain how the hit-miss ratio would changewhen CHANGING THE REPLACEMENT POLICY TO FIFO.
