Before this thread on "cache coherence" and "memory consistency" goes
any further, I'd like to suggest a time-out to read something like
http://www-ece.rice.edu/~sarita/Publications/models_tutorial.ps.
A lot of what I'm reading has a grain of truth but isn't quite
right. This paper appeared as a tutorial in IEEE Computer a couple
years ago, and is fairly accessible to a general audience.
