Abstract
A method of cache hit ratio simulation using a partial data set includes determining a set of sampled addresses, the set of sampled addresses being a subset of all addresses of a storage system of a storage environment. The method further includes using, by a simulation engine, a cache management algorithm to determine a cache hit ratio of the sampled addresses, the cache management algorithm being also used by a cache manager to place a portion of the addresses of the storage system into cache during a runtime operation. The method further includes determining a quantity of memory access operations to frequently accessed addresses in the set of sampled addresses, and correcting, by the simulation engine, the cache hit ratio of the sampled addresses based on the quantity of memory access operations to the frequently accessed addresses in the set of sampled addresses. The simulation also handles sequential operations accurately.
