Cache memories are traditionally disabled in space-level and safety-critical applications since it is believed that the sensitive area they introduce would compromise the system reliability. As the technology has evolved, the speed gap between logic and main memory has increased in such a way that disabling caches slows the code much more than in the past. As a result, the processor is exposed for a much longer time in order to compute the same workload. In this work we demonstrate that, on modern embedded processors, enabling caches may bring benefits to critical systems: the larger exposed area may be compensated by the shorter exposure time, leading to an overall improved reliability. We propose an intuitive metric and a mathematical mod...
