ABSTRACT:
A system for compounding instructions across cache line boundaries transfers an instruction line from a relatively slow memory to a instruction compounding unit if there is a miss for an instruction in that line in the instruction cache. At the same time the numerically preceding instruction in cache is transferred to the instruction compounding unit and instructions from the two lines are compounded. If a numerically preceding cache line has been compounded with a cache line that has been deleted and then replaced, compounding tags for the numerically preceding cache line are deleted.
