im just saying, historically from what ive seen, new archs use cache more efficiently and focus on that, efficiency, and big caches were always a plan B to boost an existing architecture to refresh it later... to see a new arch launch with large caches seems odd to me... then again k8 launched with 2x the cache of K7...
according to your logic, i7 must suck at big time
