摘要: A memory paging and compression system for a computer having an execution unit includes address mapping hierarchy, compressed page translation lookaside buffer, compression/decompression component. The hierarchy tables table entries which map from first portion of virtual addresses to respective pages in physical memory. the buffer caches recently used ones mappings component engine coupled between alternately compressing decompression correspondence with spills loads buffer. may be represented further include fault handler handler, each executable on unit.
