кэш

A special type of memory that is substantially faster than typical main memory (RAM). When a program asks the CPU to read or write data in memory, it first checks to see whether this data is stored in cache memory (because it will be faster to retrieve or write). Cache sizes are usually quite small though, (under 2 MB) so in order to make use of it, the data must be small enough to fit in the cache.
