Explain the difference between write through and write back
cache.

Answer Posted / achal ubbott

1. Write Through policy is relatively slower. but offers
advantage of coherence between cache and main memory.

2. Write Back is faster and frquently used. It makes use of
Dirty bit. If the data in cache is not in coherence with
one in main memory then Dirty bit is set.
