[net.arch] Translation Buffer Hit Rate

pec@necntc.UUCP (Paul Cohen) (10/06/86)

I'm told that there is a Rice University study that shows a TLB hit rate
of as low as 95% for a 16 entry fully associative TLB supporting a 4K
page size.  This seems to indicate a benchmark with more than a 64K 
working set.  

I don't doubt that this is possible, but I'm not convinced that it is 
commonplace.  

Does anyone have the complete reference for the Rice University study?  
I'd like to see the details.
