Abstract
Memory pages of a local application program are prefetched from a memory of a remote host. A method of prefetching the memory pages from the remote memory includes detecting that a cache-line access made by a processor executing the local application program is an access to a cache line containing page table data of the local application program, identifying data pages that are referenced by the page table data, and fetching the identified data pages from the remote memory and storing the fetched data pages in a local memory.
