Abstract
Techniques for reducing a number of physical counters are provided. Logical counters may be associated with physical counters. The number of physical counters may be less than the number of logical counters. It may be determined if an association of a logical counter to a physical counter exists already. If not, a new association may be created. The physical counter associated with the logical counter may then be updated.
