Philipp,

| are you up-to-date with the cvs tree (I have no idea which caches the 735 has,
| but cache flushes won't harm (well, they do harm performance)) ?

The cache flush instructions are architected to cause a processor to memory transfer
iff the cache line is dirty, while an instruction is executed, unless a dirty 
cache line is referenced, memory bandwidth is not consumed.
