摘要: A mass storage subsystem includes one or more data stores for storing information access by devices such as host computers, and a cache memory, connects to slave which provides mirrored the stored in its (that is, subsystem's) stores. When computer is information, cached memory stores, will retrieve from memory. In addition, computers can update through Over period of time, gathers statistics relating misses respective chunks, each chunk comprising relatively large number contiguous locations maintained periodically entire chunks. Generally, if there over being randomly accessed and, caching chunk, likelihood having miss that be eliminated. chunks subsystem's increase utilization subsystem.
