cache line
     
         or cache block the smallest unit of memory than
        can be transferred between the main memory and the cache.
     
        rather than reading a single word or byte from main memory at
        a time, each cache entry is usually holds a certain number of
        words, known as a "cache line" or "cache block" and a whole
        line is read and cached at once.  this takes advantage of the
        principle of locality of reference: if one location is read
        then nearby locations particularly following locations are
        likely to be read soon afterward.  it can also take advantage
        of page-mode dram which allows faster access to
        consecutive locations.
