However I think now it might be better to just use a generational cache instead (i.e. store and compare a generation counter in the cache instead of clearing, only clear when that counter wraps around). That would keep unused elements completely out of the cache. Changing the cache layout so that a higher ratio of elements are in the CPU cache and close together (e.g. by using some kind of "hash") might be worth a try, too. Because the current structure is unfortunately larger than even common L2 cache sizes. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
