Yes, 'N' is a constant in the proposed formula, and indeed, in this
case, it seems there is some space wasted in the prefetch buffer.
However, if the throughput exceeds the expectation when only 3 lines of
the data is considered, then it must be insufficient for the whole
prefetch buffer.
In order to have as many common factors in different modes so they can
be eliminated when comparing with each other, here we just use the same
'N' for all kinds of resolutions.
