Method and Apparatus for Efficient Memory Placement

Abstract

A memory profiling system profiles memory objects in various memory devices and identifies memory objects as candidates to be moved to a more efficient memory device. Memory object profiles include historical read frequency, write frequency, and execution frequency. The memory object profile is compared to parameters describing read and write performance of memory types to determine candidate memory types for relocating memory objects. Memory objects with high execution frequency may be given preference when relocating to higher performance memory devices.
