240 * caches as outlined in the documentation and the associated testing.

242 * The L1 cache has a very high bandwidth, albeit its access rate is  usually

244 * variations as the CPU has hardly to wait. Starting with L2, significant
245 * variations are added because L2 typically does not belong to the CPU any more
246 * and therefore a wider range of CPU wait states is necessary for accesses.
247 * L3 and real memory accesses have even a wider range of wait states. However,
