Abstract
Constraining memory use for overlapping virtual memory operations is described. The memory use is constrained to prevent memory from exceeding an operational threshold, e.g., in relation to operations for modifying content. These operations are implemented according to algorithms having a plurality of instructions. Before the instructions are performed in relation to the content, virtual memory is allocated to the content data, which is then loaded into the virtual memory and is also partitioned into data portions. In the context of the described techniques, at least one of the instructions affects multiple portions of the content data loaded in virtual memory. When this occurs, the instruction is carried out, in part, by transferring the multiple portions of content data between the virtual memory and a memory such that a number of portions of the content data in the memory is constrained to the memory that is reserved for the operation.
