Abstract
A request to read data stored in a non-volatile memory (NVM) is processed by incrementing a global read counter for the NVM, incrementing a local read counter for a zone of the NVM being accessed by processing of the read request, computing a degree of read hotness for the zone, computing a read concentration of the zone based at least in part on the degree of read hotness of the zone, the global read counter, and the local read counter, and relocating the data in the NVM when the read concentration of the zone meets or exceeds a threshold.
