Abstract

A processor maintains a count of accesses to each memory page. When the accesses to a memory page exceed a threshold amount for that memory page, the processor sets an indicator for the page. Based on the indicators for the memory pages, the processor manages data at one or more levels of the processor's memory hierarchy.
