Abstract

The SPEC CPU2000 benchmark suite (http://www.spec.org/osg/cpu2000) is a collection of 26 compute-intensive, non-trivial programs used to evaluate the performance of a computer's CPU, memory system, and compilers. The benchmarks in this suite were chosen to represent real-world applications, and thus exhibit a wide range of runtime behaviors. On this webpage, we present functional cache miss ratios and related statistics for selected benchmarks in the SPEC CPU2000 suite. In particular, split L1 cache sizes ranging from 4KB to 1MB with 64B blocks and associativities of 1, 2, 4, 8 and full. Most of this data was collected at the University of Wisconsin-Madison with the aid of the Simplescalar toolset (http://www.simplescalar.org).
