Abstract

A method for improving write throughput of a storage device includes receiving a data access command targeting an LBA extent and determining that logical execution of the data access command includes reading or writing data logically across an identified high-performance-cost boundary. Responsive to the determination, the data access command is split into two or more separate data access commands that are separately queued in memory for execution.
