=== Disadvantages ===
* The placement policy is slow as it takes time to iterate through all the lines.{{Disputed inline|talk=Talk:Cache placement policies#Advantages/disadvantages of the fully associative cache wrong?|date=June 2022}}

* The most expensive of all methods, due to the high cost of associative-comparison hardware.
