Abstract
In a compression processing storage system, using a pool of compression cores, the compression cores are assigned to process either compression operations, decompression operations, or decompression and compression operations, which are scheduled for processing. Only decompression operations are assigned to the plurality of compression cores having an idle status, where the idle status represents those of the plurality of compression cores that have yet to process any of the compression operations, decompression operations, and decompression and compression operations during a predetermined threshold period.
