Techniques are provided for determining an optimal configuration for an in-memory store based on both benefits and overhead that would result from having database elements populated in the in-memory store. The techniques include determining an overhead-adjusted benefit score for each element based, at least in part, on (a) a scan-benefit value, (b) a scan-overhead value, and (c) a DML-overhead value. Based on the plurality of overhead-adjusted benefit scores, the database determines an optimal configuration of the in-memory store, and then evicts in-memory copies of elements and/or loads in-memory copies of elements based on the optimal configuration.
