If for some reason you could not have both a cache memory system and a virtual memory system in the computers that you use, which would you decide to give up? What do you think the impact of your choice would be on the applications and programs that you use?

Solution

Cache memory is a type of hardware memory that actually exists physically.But, on the other hand virtual memory is just a extension to RAM. Cache memory management is done by Hardware only whereas the Virtual memory management is done by operating system.

RAM, hard disk, and various other hardware together with the operating system produces the concept called virtual memory to provide large and isolated virtual memory spaces to each program.Virtual memory offers protection to the process while they are running and if it is removed the process will bbe delayed.
