Abstract

Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems determine a miss-rate at various amounts of memory allocation for each of a plurality of workloads running within a computer. A value representing an estimated change in miss-rate for each of the workloads based upon an increase in a current allocation of memory to the workload is determined. The workload with a value representing a greatest improvement in hit rate is selected. Additional memory is allocated to the selected workload.
