2.1.1
Frequency
The processor cores are designed to run at a rated frequency and the architecture
allows operating at lower frequencies in order to make appropriate power/performance
trade-off. Along with the ability to slow down cores for power optimization, “Intel Turbo
Boost Technology” allows the ability to increase a core’s speed to optimize single
threaded applications.

2.1.2
Caching Hierarchy
Caching for the processor spans three levels - dedicated instruction and data cache
(ICU and DCU), mid-level cache (MLC) for each core, and last level cache (LLC) for the
socket.
(ICU and DCU), mid-level cache (MLC) for each core, and last level cache (LLC) for the
socket.
• ICU and DCU: 32 KB each
• MLC per core: 256 KB (instructions and data)
• LLC per socket: Up to 37.5 MB (instructions and data)
• MLC per core: 256 KB (instructions and data)
• LLC per socket: Up to 37.5 MB (instructions and data)
— Each core slice brings 2.5 MB slices
2.1.3
Addressing Space
The processor supports a virtual address space of 48 bits and a physical address space
of 46 bits.
of 46 bits.
2.1.4
Multi-threaded Cores
Each core supports two threads.
2.1.5
Power Management
The processor core implements a number of energy efficiency features. Additionally,
the processor implements a sophisticated power management scheme to throttle
cores and the memory traffic of each memory controller independently through
internal protocols.
