This research is aimed at finding the answer if the new Dothan core is just a "90-nm Banias with a 2-MB L2 cache" or something more. For this purpose, we are going to use the recently announced version 3.1 of the universal RightMark Memory Analyzer benchmark. We will then compare Dothan test results with those of Banias, described in the article on the microarchitecture of Pentium III/Pentium M CPUs.
