Abstract

A physical address of a page may be identified. A first process that implements copy-on-read techniques for the page may be detected. A determination may be made that the first process is not expected to write to the page. In response to that determination, a different logical address may be established for the first process for the page from the logical address of a second process for the page, but the two logical addresses may be mapped to the same physical page.
