Abstract

A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for a computer implemented technique for prefetching pages. Pages are prefetched from a database stored on a data storage device connected to a computer. Pages to be retrieved are identified. Identifiers for the identified pages are stored in multiple prefetch page lists. Concurrently, the retrieved pages are processed and prefetch commands are issued to alternating multiple prefetch page lists.
