Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, and methods for performing efficient memory accesses for a computing system are disclosed. In various embodiments, a computing system includes one or more computing resources and a memory controller coupled to a memory device. The memory controller determines a memory access request targets a given bank of multiple banks. An access history is updated for the given bank based on whether the memory access request hits on an open page within the given bank and a page hit rate for the given bank is determined. The memory controller sets an idle cycle limit based on the page hit rate. The idle cycle limit is a maximum amount of time the given bank will be held open before closing the given bank while the bank is idle. The idle cycle limit is based at least in part on a page hit rate for the bank.
