L1 read data evicted upon L2 write
Posted: Fri Jul 09, 2021 8:22 pm
I was running my L1 with 100% Read and 0% write and my L2 Read/Write. I noticed that Read data that was in L1 would be evicted if that data was written to L2. Was I imagining this, or is this the expected behavior given those settings? It would be nice if there was a way to prevent this behavior. The reason I like to use this setting is that if I have L1 as R/W then any write data does not get cached unless it is read. I like to have it cached on L2. I usually have a pretty big outlook.pst file and I find that the entire file is not always fully cached if I have L1 as R/W because new e-mails etc do not get cached if that part of the file is written to and the .pst file grows.
I did submit a request that you automatically L2 cache any L1 write data because it is not expensive, and you do have that for a future build. Maybe at that time the problem above will be addressed as part of that tweak.
