George-

Are there any gains to be had if you code it to fit a 256KB L2? If so,
maybe we should have 2 versions?  :)

Also, how do you think the new .13 micron Tualatin CPUs will do for
Prime95? I read someting about a new pre-fetch mechanism (?) but I
didn't quite grasp what it meant...

The newer PIIIs (1.13 & 1.26GHZ, IIRC...) have an option for 512KB...

Thanks!
