Abstract:Power consumption is an increasingly impressing concern for data servers as it directly affects running costs and system reliability. Prior studies have shown that most memory space on data servers is used for buffer caching and thus cache replacement becomes critical. Two conflicting factors of buffer caching impacts memory energy efficiency: (1) a higher hit rate reduces memory traffic and thus saves energy; (2) temporally concentrating memory accesses to a smaller set of memory chips increases the chances o… Show more
