In this simulation of a real-world racing game, the best performer was
the L2 cache latency of 14 while the poorest performer was the
latency of 12. However, the difference is only 0.6fps or 1.4%.
While the latency of 13 isn't the slowest, it's right down there
with latencies of 1, 8, 10, 11 and 12.
The results are pretty random again, with no discernable pattern. The
L2 cache latency of 1 did very badly here, garnering the third
lowest place with a score of 42.7fps. On the other hand, the
cache latency of 15, which you would expect to be at the last place,
ended up at the 6th place with a score of 43.0fps. The average
here was 42.9 fps which meant that most of the cache latencies
scored above average. Only the cache latencies of 1, 8, 10,
11, 12 and 13 scored below average.

In this simulation of a real-world 3D shooter, the L2 cache latency of 4
took over the top spot though the cache latency of 14 was close
by in second place. The poorest performer was the latency of 12
although the latency of 13 reflected the position of the latency
of 14 by garnering the second lowest score. Now, the difference
between the highest and lowest scores increased to 1fps about 2.3%.
The average here was about 45.7fps which meant that the cache
latencies of 2, 3, 4, 9, 14 and 15
scored above the average while the others merely hung close to the
average or below that. Again, the cache latency of 1 scored
badly, garnering the 5th worst place. On the other hand, the cache
latency of 15, which everyone would expect to hit rock bottom,
floated comfortably at the 5th highest place.
