Abstract
Software that performs the following steps: (i) collecting a set of sampling value(s), where each sampling value of the set of sampling value(s) respectively corresponds to an amount of overprovisioning-related data stored in a non-volatile memory device (NVMD) at the time the corresponding sampling value is collected; and (ii) determining an overprovisioning ratio for use with the NVMD based, at least in part, on the set of sampling value(s). The overprovisioning-related data is any data stored in overprovisioning space as a result of overprovisioning-type operations.
