Abstract
According to one general aspect, an apparatus may include a load/store circuit and a region size detection circuit. The load/store circuit may be configured to issue a plurality of store instructions to store data in a memory system. The region size detection circuit may be configured to determine a cache from a plurality of caches to store a stream of store instructions based upon, at least in part, by tracking multiple cache-line address entries in the plurality of store instructions, wherein each address entry is updated at a different frequency.
