Cache block analysis
Posted: Mon Feb 15, 2021 1:06 pm
Hi, I have a suggestion for improving primo cache.
It would be nice if there was a tool to analyse the block usage of the cache.
Let’s say you are using 128KB block size, if we could calculate how much waste on average per block.
So for example the average block size being cached is 8K in size, the waste in average would be 120kb per block, the user can then re-configure his block size to something more appropriate.
It’s not necessarily easy to find the optimal block size and a tool to figure this out would be very appreciated.
Of course you would need the cache to fill out and stabilize to have an idea of what it’s actually using.
Thank you
