Hermes technique speeds up processor load requests

Researchers have developed a new technique called Hermes to accelerate long-latency load requests in high-performance processors. Hermes accurately predicts which load requests are likely to go off-chip and speculatively fetches the data directly from main memory. This approach aims to hide the on-chip cache access latency from the critical path, significantly improving performance. The project has also released its implementation as open-source. AI

    Hermes: Accelerating Long-Latency Load Requests via Perceptron-Based Off-Chip Load Prediction

    arXiv:2209.00188v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Long-latency load requests continue to limit the performance of high-performance processors. To increase the latency tolerance of a processor, architects have primarily relied on two key techniques: sophisticated data pref…
