Abstract
A flush set of data pages to flush from a cache to non-volatile data storage is identified, and a compression group is identified that is made up of similar data pages within the flush set. A previously compressed data page is identified in non-volatile data storage that is similar to the data pages in the compression group. Data compression is performed on the compression group using a compression dictionary for the previously compressed data page. A flush set specific hash index and a global hash index may be used to identify the similar data pages in the compression group and the similar previously compressed data page. An indication of the similar previously compressed data page may be stored in the compressed block generated for the compression group, and the compression dictionary for the previously compressed data page need not be duplicated in the non-volatile data storage.
