“…Page-based techniques are more suitable than blockbased techniques for increasing the buffer hit ratio or reducing the number of dirty data writes from the buffer to the NAND flash. This is because, in hot/cold prediction or clean/dirty separation of buffer entries, the accuracy of prediction/separation increases as the buffer management granularity decreases [37]. Thus, for a larger buffer management granularity, the hot/cold or clean/dirty data are more likely to be mixed within one buffer entry.…”
