Abstract
In a flash memory device, portions of a write buffer may be merged into a user space logical unit based on a measurement of write buffer usage. In a Universal Flash Storage (UFS) device configured with the WriteBooster feature, the write buffer may be a WriteBooster buffer. When it is determined that a user space logical unit has become full, then the write buffer usage may be determined. Portions of the write buffer that are least used or have the longest remaining lifetime may be preferentially merged into the user space logical unit.
