More Information
Summary:A computer product for reducing store operation busy times is provided and relates to associating first and second platform registers with a cache array, determining that first and second store operations target a same wordline of the cache array, loading control information and data of the store operations into the platform registers and delaying a commit of the first store operation until the loading of the second platform register is complete. The method further includes committing the data from the platform registers using the control information from the platform registers to the wordline of the cache array at a same time to thereby reduce a busy time of the wordline of the cache array.
