Yes that is what I am saying. See Intel manuals for patterns they can detect. Mostly it is strided accesses and use of pointers at fixed offsets of a structure

If the graph fits into cache as an array the prefetchers would be more or less unnecessary since everything is already there. Beyond that, I probably don’t have enough experience or knowledge to make a good guess.
