Abstract
A method of loading objects from primary memory includes the step of creating hash values for listed objects to create a hash index specifying a set of hash values. The hash index is loaded into primary memory to form a primary memory hashed index object directory. A calculated hash value is derived for an invoked object. The calculated hash value is matched with a hash value in the primary memory hashed index object directory. In response to this matching operation, an object corresponding to the calculated hash value is loaded into primary memory.
