Associativity Distribution<br />

Eviction priority: Rank of a block given by the replacement<br />

function, normalized to [0,1]<br />

Higher is better to evict<br />

24<br />

Associativity distribution: Probability distribution of the<br />

eviction priorities of evicted blocks<br />

Higher associativity distribution more skewed towards 1.0<br />

Measures how well the array does, not the replacement policy<br />

For good performance, replacement policy also needs to do a good job!
