Can I? Not now unfortunately. They called out the L1I$ at 192KB but the vague nature of the LSU's cache could go either way. I will try and clarify but for now I have to do some yard work before the skies open up.

See above. Or below, depending on your sort order. That said MS's 'AI' crap is evil beyond words. Think about it if you are a divorce lawyer. Or any lawyer. "You turned off recall? So you destroyed evidence? Prove you didn't". Anyone still on Windows is a rank idiot IMHO.

FWIW I do say sources a lot without identifying them and it is always to protect them. I err on the side of protection every time.
