Memory channel interleaving

Multi-core processors running multi-threaded applications pose a significant challenge to the memory
subsystem. The processor cores share the bandwidth of the memory bus; therefore, the multi-core
processor's performance is limited by the memory bus bandwidth. Even with sufficient memory bus
bandwidth, the actual throughput of a single memory controller can create a bottleneck as it handles
memory requests from multiple cores.
To overcome this bottleneck, manufacturers are designing memory controller chips with multiple
integrated memory controllers (Figure 8). The chip can contain two, three, or four memory controllers
that operate independently of each other to access up to two DIMMs per channel. This enables a
process called channel interleaving. In channel interleaving, each integrated memory controller
successively provides a 64-byte cache line of data from the first DIMM on its channel. After the last
memory controller completes the data transfer, the memory controllers can provide a cache line from
a second DIMM on each channel. Channel interleaving does not prevent bank or rank interleaving.
The effective throughput of the memory controller is the sum of the individual memory channels. As the
number of cores on a single processor increases, the number of integrated memory controllers will
need to increase accordingly to provide the necessary throughput.
