A Windows XP TLB entry contains the full 32- bit virtual address and the 32-bit physical address to which it corresponds.Associative memory is very expensive. Suggest a space-saving optimization for the TLB.
What will be an ideal response?
Store only the first 20 bits of the 32-bit virtual address.The 12-bit page byte offset does
not need to be translated. (It is impossible to cut any bits from the 32-bit physical address
entry because the “extra” bits are used for protection).
