Care needs to be taken to reduce the number of times main memory is accessed in order to maintain performance.

In other cases results may be written to slower, but cheaper and larger, main memory.

Another design problem was the increasing performance gap between the processor and main memory.

An internal sort is any data sorting process that takes place entirely within the main memory of a computer.

These display lists eventually get written back out to main memory before going on to the next stage.

This contrasts with normal main memory, which might take several cycles to access.
