Cache Performance

Cache performance refers to how effectively a computer's cache quickly supplies data the CPU needs. Think of cache as a short-term storage area close to the processor, holding frequently used information. When data is used repeatedly, a well-performing cache retrieves it faster than fetching from the main memory. Good cache performance minimizes delays, improving overall system speed. Factors like cache size, organization, and algorithms influence how effectively it predicts and stores data, ultimately determining how quickly your computer responds to tasks.
