On the SRF platform for runs with intrinsic scores for the ArrayFill test reports ~2x drop for several sizes due to a lot of the 'MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.SPLIT_STORES' events. The 'good' case for the ArraysFill.testCharFill with size=8195 reports numbers like
MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.SPLIT_LOADS | 22.6711
MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.SPLIT_STORES | 4.0859
while for 'bad' case these metrics are
MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.SPLIT_LOADS | 69.1785
MEM_UOPS_RETIRED.SPLIT_STORES | 259200.3659
With alignment on the cache size no score drops due to split_stores but small reduction may be reported due to extra
