Order # 245472 L1 Data Cache - Pentium 4 and Intel Xeon processors: 8 KBytes, 4-way set associative, 64-byte cache line size. L2 Unified Cache - Pentium 4 and Intel Xeon processors: 256 KBytes 8-way set associative, sectored, 64-byte cache line size. The point is that according to the specs both L1 and L2 cacheline sizes are 64-byte.
