know had a P100 with - get this - 16KB cache. Fixed!! No way to upgrade
to the standard 256 or 512K! That was his bottleneck, once he went to a
motherboard with more cache memory. Just my two cents. Unfortunately,
I'm jumping in late here, so I don't really know the full story. Sorry
if it's not relevant or repetitive.
