A system for optimizing translation lookaside buffer entries is provided. The system includes a translation lookaside buffer configured to store a number of entries, each entry having a size attribute, each entry referencing a corresponding page, and control logic configured to modify the size attribute of an existing entry in the translation lookaside buffer if a new page is contiguous with an existing page referenced by the existing entry. The existing entry after having had its size attribute modified references a consolidated page comprising the existing page and the new page.
