Intel Corporation announced amidst Computex that it would revive efforts to accelerate programs by caching their I/O on flash memory modules bundled with upcoming Lynnfield chipsets.

Intel has dubbed the technology Braidwood and explains that it leverages flash memory to store application I/O to significantly accelerate tasks like opening a program or executing common tasks.

This is not the first time that Intel has attempted to cache application I/O. The firm previously developed an analogous technology known as Robson which was later launched to lukewarm reception under the Turbo Memory moniker.

The microprocessor firm has said that it will bundle Braidwood technology with platforms that include the 5-series Lynnfield chipset and GPU+CPU derivatives of the Lynnfield CPU.
