Abstract

A method is used in managing processing tasks in storage systems. A set of tasks is received for processing. A type of the set of tasks is identified. Based on the type of the set of tasks, a determination is made as to whether to add data objects associated with the set of tasks to a used object list managed in conjunction of a cache of the system for accessing the data objects associated with the set of tasks. The cache is configured to store the data objects of the storage system. A portion of a memory of the storage system is reserved as the cache.
