Abstract
Storage arrays in a mirror relationship use dynamic compression dictionary size adjustment and data buffer merging to more efficiently compress data associated with maintenance of consistency of a replicated storage object. A compression dictionary size selector selects a supported compression dictionary size based on the aggregate size of the updates enqueued for transmission in the data buffers, e.g., a compression dictionary size that is greater than or equal to, and as close as possible to, the aggregate size of the enqueued updates. A combiner selects enqueued updates based on the selected compression dictionary size, e.g., aggregate enqueued update size less than or equal to, and as close as possible to, the selected compression dictionary size. The selected updates are coalesced and compressed using the selected compression dictionary size.
