Abstract
A method, computer program product, and computer system for identifying a plurality of blocks. At least one heuristic associated with at least a portion of the plurality of blocks may be determined. It may be determined whether at least the portion of the plurality of blocks is a candidate for deduplication based upon, at least in part, the at least one heuristic. At least the portion of the plurality of blocks may be deduplicated based upon, at least in part, the at least one heuristic.
