Cache line of 64 bits. 64 BITS. This forum is full of 
knowledgeable people and they should have spoted this mistake or 
they didnt read it. Cache lines on most processors are 64 bytes. 
Now I know why it felt weird when I wrote that post. So the real 
math for when you read one bit in cache line is 1/(64*8) = 
0.001953125 or ~ 0.2% signal to noise ratio
