Seems to me it'll end up always fetching > a single line at a time. That series is to optimize dcache, since disassembly doesn't use dcache, that series doesn't help disassembly now. Once we use dcache in disassembly (that is what I am doing), that series helps when users disassembly large functions. -- Yao (齐尧)
