Definitely gives some very interesting information about ones x86 CPU. At least something to work on. The output for different CPU types is a bit incoherent, making it difficult to parse. That why I [still] think (yes I'm stubborn :-) that having the cache sizes in /proc/cpuinfo in one format is a good idea. The info is there, it is just the output. With the userland tool, you always may have discrepancies between the kernels view and the tools view. But I agree, it does not *have* to go into the kernel.
