Abstract
Described herein are methods of transferring arrays of data information by remote data memory access (RDMA). According to the method, data information in data arrays in a local place identified. The intended data and garbage data are identified. Contiguous intended data and garbage data are copied to a remote place when the amount of garbage data is below a threshold garbage data criteria, and only intended data is copied to the remote place when the amount of garbage data is above the threshold garbage data criteria amount. Copying relies on scatter/gather input/output of RDMA. The garbage data transferred to the remote place is forwarded to a free list of the remote place.
