Question 9

What is the role of cache memory ?

Answer

The Cache Memory is a high speed memory available inside CPU in order to speed up access to data and instructions stored in RAM memory. Whenever some data is required, the CPU first looks in the cache, if it is there or not. If the data is found in cache, CPU does not access memory and hence the process becomes very fast.
