Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for managing performance of a computing device having dissimilar memory types. An exemplary embodiment comprises a method for interleaving dissimilar memory devices. The method involves determining an interleave bandwidth ratio comprising a ratio of bandwidths for two or more dissimilar memory devices. The dissimilar memory devices are interleaved according to the interleave bandwidth ratio. Memory address requests are distributed from one or more processing units to the dissimilar memory devices according to the interleave bandwidth ratio.
