Abstract

Systems, methods, and software described herein allocate cache memory to job processes executing on a processing node. In one example, a method of allocating cache memory to a plurality of job process includes identifying the plurality of job processes executing on a processing node, and identifying a data object to be accessed by the plurality of job processes. The method further provides allocating a portion of the cache memory to each job process in the plurality of job processes and, for each job process in the plurality of job processes, identifying a segment of data from the data object, wherein the segment of data comprises a requested portion of data and a predicted portion of data. The method also includes providing the segments of data to the allocated portions of the cache memory.
