  • Reallocation of pools of fixed size buffers based on metrics collected for maximum number of concurrent requests for each distinct memory size
    Patent number: 6070202
    Abstract: A computing device (100) has memory (180) subdivided into a first configuration of pools of fixed size memory buffers (188). In response to requests for memory specifying a particular memory size, a fixed size memory of at least the particular size is allocated from the memory area (510, 520). Metrics are collected for each memory request, the metrics including distinct memory sizes based on the particular size requested, and the peak number of concurrent requests for each distinct memory size (530). The memory area is reconfigured as needed into a second configuration of pools of fixed size memory buffers using the metrics collected (540, 550).
