L1 + L2

Post by user4653453 »

Hello,

Im wondering.
Does the L1 cache get flushed to L2 cache before it finally gets flushed into the source/destination?
Im asking because it is really nice that, even though only write cache is enabled, when reading from those same files, the L2 cache files that have already been flushed remain in the L2, so its also read cache.

Does this work L1+L2, if i make any sense

No, L1 is directly flushed to target disks. After flushed, these data are still kept in L1. In v4.x, PrimoCache add an option to allow flushing L1 to L2 when L1 is full and latency has not expired, but during normal flush (when latency expires), L1 is still directly flushed to target disks.
