Dusty caches for reference counting garbage collection

Content Provider ACM Digital Library
Author Chamberlain, Roger Krishnamurthy, Praveen Fritts, Jason E. Friedman, Scott Cytron, Ron K.
Abstract Reference counting is a garbage-collection technique that maintains a per-object count of the number of pointers to that object. When the count reaches zero, the object must be dead and can be collected. Although it is cannot detect all garbage on its own, it is well suited for some applications and is implemented typically in conjunction with other methods to increase overall precision. A disadvantage of reference counting is the extra storage traffic that is introduced. In this paper, we describe a new cache write-back policy that can substantially decrease the reference-counting traffic to RAM.We investigate a cache design that takes advantage of temporally silent stores, by remebering the first-fetched value of a cache subblock, so that the subblock need not be written back to RAM unless a different value is present. We present results from experiments that show the effectiveness of this approach, particularly in mitigating the storage traffic due to reference counting.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
