Abstract
An apparatus, system, and signal bearing medium are disclosed for dynamically allocating meta-data repository resources. In one embodiment, the present invention includes tracking resources allocated to a meta-data repository, evaluating repository usage of the resources allocated to a meta-data repository to ascertain whether a resource adjustment is desirable, determining the desirable adjustments to the resources allocated to a meta-data repository, and adjusting the allocated resources in accordance with the determined amount. In one embodiment dynamically allocating meta-data repository resources, strings and buffers from volatile memory, will efficiently use necessary resources thereby not misusing essential system memory. By dynamically allocating meta-data repository resources, system and work performance are enhanced increasing productivity.
