Caching mechanism has achieved great success in general purpose processor; however, its deployment in Network Processor (NP) raises questions over its effectiveness under the new context. In this study, we thoroughly evaluate the performance of caches in NP with architectural features like multicore, multithread, and integrated packet interface. Our major findings include: (1) In general, a sufficiently large cache effectively reduces the number of memory requests and improves the utilization of the NP computation power. (2) The lower efficiency of private caches caused by duplicate information deteriorates the NP performance under certain circumstances. (3) The appropriate cache block size is constrained by the low spatial locality of netw...
