Abstract
A method, medium and system for setting a transfer unit in a data processing system. The method comprises setting a transfer unit in a data processing system which repeatedly performs a process of transmitting data stored in a first memory to a second memory in a predetermined transfer unit, processing the transmitted data stored in the second memory, and transmitting the processed data to the first memory. The method includes computing overhead on the data processing system according to the size of each of a plurality of data units available as the transfer unit; and setting a data unit, which corresponds to a minimum overhead from among the computed overheads, as the transfer unit. Accordingly, it is possible to set an optimum transfer unit according to an environment of a data processing system in order to improve the performance of the data processing system.
