That's why efficient use of the cache is becoming so important to compiler design and processor design. There is more cache on the processor than there used to be RAM on a computer.

Well RAM speed isn't really maxed out. After DDR isn't going to get any better there are several possible RAM technologies which just aren't industrially useful or profitable yet.
A big restriction to everyday desktop RAM speeds is the huge amount of work necessery to overhaul the architectures for something completely new. Currently there's only a wall as long as we build it ourselves.

With enough work and a new architecture we could soon have PCs that don't need any RAM anymore due to the fact a harddrive has more than enough speed to deal with everything on it's own. But my guess is that it still will take several years to get there, if we get there sometime at all. Afterall systems aren't just developed for performance but rather for profit. As long as the two collide performance will always draw the short stick.

Wrong, flash memory is still significantly slower than RAM. Even the iPhone, which is entirely solid state flash hard drive, has high speed RAM.

And like I said, the speed of the RAM isn't maxed out, its the amount of info that can be moved between the RAM and the CPU that's pretty much stuck. It's still increasing, but not nearly as quickly as it used to be. As software uses more and more RAM, more and more info needs to be swapped between the RAM and the CPU cache. There is a reason that the RAM is literally right next to the CPU

I agree, I guess I dindn't pick the right words. I know it's not a thing of currently possible, I just say it very well might possible in the future. And I suppose I forgot the restrictions through the physical distance a moment, even though I very well know this.

Anyone with Lucid Scribe and interesting enough data can publish to LSDBase.

is that code can help me Induce LDS .?

Yes, that is why it is called "lucidcode".

So yes, I bought the USB kind and hope you can find the patience to buy directly from the source.

Heh, hadn't seen this post until now. I'm patiently awaiting the release of your hardware/software package deal
