Abstract

A storage system and method are provided for hit-rate-score-based selective prediction of future random read commands. In one embodiment, a storage system is provided comprising a memory configured to store a prior read command data structure, the prior read command data structure comprising a hit-rate score field. The storage system receives a current read command; generates a search sequence of read commands comprising the current read command and at least one prior read command; calculates an index value based on the search sequence; reads a hit-rate score from the hit-rate score field of an entry of the prior read command data structure identified by the index value; determines whether the hit-rate score is less than a threshold; and in response to determining that the hit-rate score is less than the threshold, updates the prior read command data structure with the search sequence. Other embodiments are provided.
