Direction: Consider two cache organizations :
The first one is 32 kbyte 2-way set associative with 32 k byte block size. The second one is of the same size but direct mapped. The size of an address is 32 bit in both cases. A 2- to-1 multiplexer has a latency of 0.6 ns while a k-bit comparator has a latency of k/10 ns. The hit latency of het set associative organization is h₁ while that of the direct mapped one is h₂.
