Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments for improving the resiliency and performance of cluster memory. First, a computing device can submit a write request to a byte-addressable chunk of memory stored by a memory host, wherein the byte-addressable chunk of memory is read-only. Then, the computing device can determine that a page-fault occurred in response to the write request. Next, the computing device can copy a page associated with the write request from the byte-addressable chunk of memory to the memory of the computing device. Subsequently, the computing device can free the page from the memory host. Then, the computing device can update a page table entry for the page to refer to a location of the page in the memory of the computing device.
