Abstract

A Memory Merging Function 'MMF' for merging memory pages. A hardware system comprises a set of memory blades and a set of computing pools. At least one instance of an operating system executes on the hardware system. The MMF is independent of the operating system. The MMF finds a first and a second memory page. The first and second memory pages include identical information. The first and second memory pages are associated with at least one computing unit of the computing units. The MMF obtains a respective memory blade parameter relating to memory blade of the first and second memory pages and a respective latency parameter relating to latency for accessing the first and second memory pages. The MMF releases at least one of the first and second memory pages based on the respective memory blade and latency parameters.
