Hey friends...what exactly you mean by Cache memory and how exactly it increases the performance of a processor? Need some expert to throw some light on this.

cache memory is placed between cpu and RAM. In cache memory all data which is frequently accessed by processor is stored . so when processor want to access the data processor first check in cache memory ane if not fount in cache memory then it check in the RAM.

More importantly , Cache memory (static memory) is much much faster than the ddr ram memory (dynamic memory), which are the main memory modules. The processor fetches most of the data and instructions from the cache , thus enabling them to run at higher speeds and waste less time waiting for data to arrive from main memory modules. The data from main memory modules are buffered by the cache.
