Hey all -
Just went into my preferences and noticed a new pane called "CPU". No idea how long it's been there, but being a speed freak, I decided to check it out. I opened it up, and noticed that level3 cache was set to none. I check my profiler, which states that I have 1mb of level3 cache, so I set the preferences to 1mb (only option besides none). Well I thought it was fine, but when I reopened the pane to check after a reboot (much faster, maybe do to diskwarrior optimization, performed at the same time) I noticed that it had been reset to none again. So i turned it back to 1mb. While sitting there watching it, it turned itself back to none after a few seconds! What gives?? Anyone seen this before? Is Apple and the profiler lying to me?! Do I not have level3 cache? If I do why can't I turn it on?
thanks!!
