DCA Technology
This feature accelerates the performance of TOE devices. Note: A TOE device is
a specialized, dedicated processor that is installed on an add-on card or a network
card to handle some or all packet processing of this add-on card. For this moth-
erboard, the TOE device is built inside the ESB 2 South Bridge chip. This feature
is supported only by some types of processors (i.e., Intel Nehalem-WS 1S). The
options are Enabled and Disabled.
DCA Prefetch Delay
A DCA Prefetch is used with TOE components to prefetch data in order to shorten
execution cycles and maximize data processing effi ciency. Prefetching too fre-
quently can saturate the cache directory and delay necessary cache accesses. This
feature reduces or increases the frequency the system prefetches data. The options
are [8], [16], [32], [40], [48], [56], [64], [72], [80], [88], [96], [104], [112], [120]
