Abstract
The sizes of cache partitions, in a partitioned cache, are dynamically adjusted by determining, for each request, how many cache misses will occur in connection with implementing the request against the cache partition. The cache partition associated with the current request is increased in size by the number of cache misses and one or more other cache partitions is decreased in size causing cache evictions to occur from the other cache partitions rather than from the current cache partition. The other cache partitions, that are to be decreased in size, may be determined by ranking the cache partitions according to frequency of use and selecting the least frequently used cache partition to be reduced in size.
