Huh, according to lstopo my processor's E-cores have more L1i (64 KiB) than the P-cores (32 KiB).

@chjara cache improves power efficiency ig, still weird. Maybe intel expects stuff that runs on e-cores to have not so tight loops?

@chjara actually, you'd want run a wild assortnment of background tasks on them usually? That means a bunch of context switching and you need mkre cache.
I thibk that makes sense?

@snacks Eh, you're not keeping more than one task at a time in L1. I think it's probably just because they couldn't fit 64 KiB in the P-cores' throughput/latency requirements, but they could for the E-cores.
