Paging: Also Too Slow
Understand how paging affects system performance by requiring additional memory references for address translation. Learn about the process of translating virtual addresses to physical addresses using page tables and why this can slow systems down. This lesson highlights common problems with paging mechanisms and the need for optimized hardware and software designs.

With page tables in memory, we already know that they might be too big. As it turns out, they can slow things down too.
