Abstract

Data routing for efficient decompressor use is described. In accordance with the described techniques, a cache controller receives requests from multiple requestors for elements of data stored in a compressed format in a cache. The requests include at least a first request from a first requestor and a second request from a second requestor. A decompression routing system identifies a redundant element of data requested by both the first requestor and the second requestor and causes decompressors to decompress the requested elements of data. The decompression includes performing a single decompression of the redundant element. After the decompression, the decompression routing system routes the decompressed elements to the plurality of requestors, which includes routing the decompressed redundant element to both the first requestor and the second requestor.
