This article does meet the FA criteria of 1]c) "Factually accurate" most, if not all of the claims made in this article are unreferenced, there are no reliable sources to check the accuracy of content against. Slowbro 22:33, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * After reading the original nomination, it appears that "Evaluating Associativity in CPU Caches" and "Cache Performance for SPEC CPU2000 Benchmarks" may be sources disguised as links.  Pagra shtak  20:26, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Still, a FA that's entire contents was sourced from two references?! no matter how realiable the sources are, and their authors, i still think this article is missing a reference or two, or 50. The article may as well just be a link to those documents. Slowbro 06:28, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Let us know when you find a factual problem. The fact for the assertion that a 2Mb cache system will cost in four figures, which seems very likely to be true. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 19:16, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

FARC commentary

 * Remove, lots of one-sentence paragraphs, listy prose, strange bolding and italics throughout (see WP:MOSBOLD), external jumps, and informal prose—At the far right, with cache size labelled "Inf", we have the compulsory misses. If we wish to improve a machine's performance on SpecInt2000, increasing the cache size beyond 1 MiB is essentially futile. That's the insight given by the compulsory misses.
