SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVISIONING FREQUENTLY USED IMAGE SEGMENTS FROM CACHES

摘要

The disclosed computer-implemented method for provisioning frequently used image segments from caches may include (1) storing a representation and a use counter for an image segment that is hosted on a storage system in a list of representations and use counters for image segments hosted on the storage system, (2) incrementing a current value of the use counter for the image segment in the list of representations and use counters each time the image segment is provisioned from the storage system, (3) determining that the current value of the use counter for the image segment has met a predetermined threshold for frequent image-segment provisioning, (4) hosting the image segment in a cache that enables quicker provisioning than the storage system enables, and (5) provisioning the image segment from the cache in response to a request to provision the image segment. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

1. A computer-implemented method for provisioning frequently used image segments from caches, at least a portion of the method being performed by a computing device comprising at least one processor, the method comprising:
storing a representation and a use counter for an image segment that is hosted on a storage system in a list of representations and use counters for image segments hosted on the storage system; incrementing a current value of the use counter for the image segment in the list of representations and use counters each time the image segment is provisioned from the storage system; determining that the current value of the use counter for the image segment has met a predetermined threshold for frequent image-segment provisioning; hosting the image segment in a cache that enables quicker provisioning than the storage system enables; provisioning the image segment from the cache in response to a request to provision the image segment.
