Depends on the program. My guess is that many programs will run much faster on the o/c Celery because of its faster L1 cache. Many other programs will run much slower because of the smaller size of the L1 cache. As for the hash table, the village idiot can tell you that a 128 MB hash table can not fit in 128 k of L1 cache. Hash table size is a total non-issue, unless you use a hash table that's really really really small and it DOES fit in L1 cache, in which case it's pretty much useless anyway. -Tom On November 06, 1998 at 11:58:19, Ren Wu wrote: >Hi, all > >Sorry if this is a little offtopic. > >I was almost ready to get a PII450 system, until i found that everyone seems be >able to overclocking Celeron 300A to 450 as well.
