Abstract

Embodiments of the invention relate to page faulting of memory operations in a subject code block. An aspect of the invention concerns an apparatus comprising a component for identifying a first object node having a first dependency path and second object node having a second dependency path, and a component for calculating a numerical difference between a first addressing value and a second addressing value, where the first and second addressing values are respectively associated with the first and second dependency paths. The apparatus may include a dependency generator for ordering a subject order list of the subject code block in an object dependency non-page-faulting order when the numerical difference is equal to or less than an assigned memory page size.
