A couple of (possibly) naive questions: How big is the Cache on the 68020? How can I be sure that my inner loop is small enough to fit in the Cache? I'm writing code in LSC 3.0, so I don't apriori know how big it will be, but I suppose I can disassemble the code to find its size.

I'm writing code in Make sure your sensitive routine fits in 256 bytes. This is best done with something like dumpObj in MPW, or looking at the routine with the disassembler in MacsBug.
