+        Normally only the ISR of SPI master is placed in the IRAM, so that it
+        can work without the flash when interrupt is triggered.
+        For other functions, there's some possibility that the flash cache
+        miss when running inside and out of SPI functions, which may increase
+        the interval of SPI transactions.
+        Enable this to put ``queue_trans``, ``get_trans_result`` and
+        ``transmit`` functions into the IRAM to avoid possible cache miss.
+
+        During unit test, this is enabled to measure the ideal case of api.
