  2. Wikipedia:Bypass your cache - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bypass_your_cache

    To disable the cache: Open Developer Tools (F12, Ctrl+⇧ Shift+I or Tools Developer Tools). Click on the horizontal ellipsis on the upper right corner of the Dev Tools interface and select "Settings" (Shortcut: F1). Check the "Disable Cache" check-box. Note: This method only works if the developer console remains open. Browser extensions are ...

  3. Error recovery control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_recovery_control

    Modern hard drives feature an ability to recover from some read/write errors by internally remapping sectors and performing other forms of self-test and recovery. The process for this can sometimes take several seconds or (under heavy usage) minutes, during which time the drive is unresponsive.

  4. Fatal system error - Wikipedia

    If the user has enabled it, the system will also write an entry to the system event log. The log entry contains information about the bug check (including the bug check code and its parameters) as well as a link that will report the bug and provide the user with prescriptive suggestions if the cause of the check is definitive and well-known.

    Alternatively, the caching can simply be turned off when the integrity of data is deemed more important than write performance. Another option is to send data to disk in a carefully managed order and to issue "cache flush" commands in the right places, which is usually referred to as the implementation of write barriers .

  6. Cache invalidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_invalidation

    Cache invalidation is a process in a computer system whereby entries in a cache are replaced or removed.. It can be done explicitly, as part of a cache coherence protocol. In such a case, a processor changes a memory location and then invalidates the cached values of that memory location across the rest of the computer system.

  7. Negative cache - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_cache

    In computer programming, negative cache is a cache that also stores "negative" responses, i.e. failures. This means that a program remembers the result indicating a failure even after the cause has been corrected. Usually negative cache is a design choice, but it can also be a software bug.

  8. Cache (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_(computing)

    A cache hit occurs when the requested data can be found in a cache, while a cache miss occurs when it cannot. Cache hits are served by reading data from the cache, which is faster than recomputing a result or reading from a slower data store; thus, the more requests that can be served from the cache, the faster the system performs.

  9. Locality of reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locality_of_reference

    Data elements in a cache do not necessarily correspond to data elements that are spatially close in the main memory; however, data elements are brought into cache one cache line at a time. This means that spatial locality is again important: if one element is referenced, a few neighboring elements will also be brought into cache.
