Memory Modes For Increased Performance on Intel Xeon Phi

The Intel Xeon Phi processor supports different types of memory, and can organize this into three types of memory mode. The new processor from Intel contains two type of memory, MCDRAM and DDR memory. These different memory subsystems are complimentary but can be used in different ways, depending on the application that is being executed. "By using these two types of memory in the same system gives flexibility to the overall system and will show an increase in performance for almost any application."
