A trace management architecture to enable the reuse of uops within one or more repeated traces. More particularly, embodiments of the invention relate to a technique to prevent multiple accesses to various functional units within a trace management architecture by reusing traces or sequences of traces that are repeated during a period of operation of the microprocessor, avoiding performance gaps due to multiple trace cache accesses and increasing the rate at which uops can be executed within a processor.
