Abstract
Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory provides high density, byte-addressable main memory with larger capacity and slightly lower bandwidth and speed than DRAM. To utilize this larger quantity of slower main memory easily, Intel’s hardware provides the so-called Memory Mode, which uses DRAM as a cache for the persistent memory. [23] [19]
This work aims to determine the cache organization of the Memory Mode, by designing and using a series of benchmarks, and aims to reimplement a software variant of the Memory Mode through a user space library to provide a more flexible and transparent alternative to the Memory Mode.
