#181596 - Better with multiple, smaller, pages than one large.
Responding to: ???'s previous message
For a cache mechanism, it would be way better with multiple 64-byte cache pages than a single 256 byte buffer.

The reason is that whenever a program makes a function call, it's likely that the call will be so far away that it will leave the original cache page. Having multiple pages means a greater probability that the return from a function call will return to still cached data.
