  2. Fragmentation (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragmentation_(computing)

    When this happens, the excess memory goes to waste. In this scenario, the unusable memory, known as slack space, is contained within an allocated region. This arrangement, termed fixed partitions, suffers from inefficient memory use - any process, no matter how small, occupies an entire partition. This waste is called internal fragmentation. [3 ...

    This is a new eviction algorithm designed in 2023. Compared to existing algorithms, which mostly build on LRU (least-recently-used), S3-FIFO only uses three FIFO queues: a small queue occupying 10% of cache space, a main queue that uses 90% of the cache space, and a ghost queue that only stores object metadata.

  4. CPU cache - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU_cache

    A CPU cache is a hardware cache used by the central processing unit (CPU) of a computer to reduce the average cost (time or energy) to access data from the main memory. [1] A cache is a smaller, faster memory, located closer to a processor core, which stores copies of the data from frequently used main memory locations.

  5. Program optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_optimization

    Programs written in D can use the inline assembler. Rewriting sections "pays off" in these circumstances because of a general "rule of thumb" known as the 90/10 law, which states that 90% of the time is spent in 10% of the code, and only 10% of the time in the remaining 90% of the code. So, putting intellectual effort into optimizing just a ...

    A model, called Concurrent-AMAT (C-AMAT), is introduced for more accurate analysis of current memory systems. More information on C-AMAT can be found in the external links section. AMAT's three parameters hit time (or hit latency), miss rate, and miss penalty provide a quick analysis of memory systems. Hit latency (H) is the time to hit in the ...

  7. For example, on the International Space Station the Earth's gravity is nearly 90% as strong as at the surface. Objects orbiting in space would not remain in orbit if not for the gravitational force, and gravitational fields extend even into the depths of intergalactic space.

    The "Task View" display is a new feature to Windows 10, allowing the use of multiple workspaces. A new iteration of the Start menu is used on the Windows 10 desktop, with a list of places and other options on the left side, and tiles representing applications on the right. The menu can be resized, and expanded into a full-screen display, which ...
