Abstract
A data processing apparatus has a main memory that contains memory locations with mutually different access latencies. Information from the main memory is cached in a cache memory. When cache replacement is needed selection of a cache replacement location depends on differences in the access latencies of the main memory locations for which replaceable cache locations are in use. When an access latency of a main memory location cached in the replaceable cache memory location is relatively smaller than an access latency of other main memory locations cached in other replaceable cache memory locations, the cached data for that main memory location is replaced by preference over data for the other main memory locations, because of its smaller latency.
