The growing popularity of in-memory computing for bigdata analytics often causes performance bottlenecks to memory subsystem resided in operating systems (OS). This article purposes cooperative memory expansion (COMEX), an OS kernel extension. COMEX establishes a stable pool of memory collectively across nodes in a cluster and enhances OS's memory subsystem for memory aggregation from connected machines by allowing process's page table to track remote memory page frames without programmer effort or modifications to application codes. COMEX employs Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) for low-latency data transfer with destination kernel bypassed and does not rely on an old design of the I/O block subsystem usually adopted by all known remote paging. COMEX fits soundly in the emerging system design approach of resource disaggregation which breaks hard walls between server-centric machines into a new design paradigm of separated resource pools. The new architecture facilitates both system scaling-up and scaling-out, also eliminates imbalance resources existing in datacenters. We have implemented COMEX based on Linux kernel 3.10.87 and deployed on our 32 networked servers. Performance evaluation results under ten applications from two benchmark suites reveal the speedup of up to 170 times when application execution footprints are 10 times larger than available system memory.
