Abstract

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media can store program instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform steps of organizing storage as a set of storage regions, each storage region having a fixed size; and for each storage region, storing a storage allocation structure of the storage region formatted in a first format selected from a format set including at least two formats, determining a change of an allocation feature of the storage region, based on the allocation feature of the storage region, selecting, from the format set, a second format of the storage allocation structure, and reformatting the storage allocation structure in the second format.
