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
