What is the Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB)?

Answer Posted / guest

In a cached system, the base addresses of the last few
referenced pages is maintained in registers called the TLB
that aids in faster lookup.

TLB contains those page-table entries that have been most
recently used.

Normally, each virtual memory reference causes 2 physical
memory accesses-- one to fetch appropriate page-table
entry, and one to fetch the desired data. Using TLB in-
between, this is reduced to just one physical memory access
in cases of TLB-hit.

Measurements of a certain system have shown that the average process runs for a time T before blocking on I/O. A process switch requires a time S, which is effectively wasted (overhead). The CPU’s efficiency is the fraction of its time its spends executing user programs, i.e., executing user processes. For round robin scheduling with quantum Q, give a formula for the CPU efficiency for each of the following: (a) Q = ∞ (b) Q > S + T (c) S
