Abstract

In an approach for sharing memory bandwidth in one or more processors, a processor receives a first set of monitored usage information for one or more processors executing one or more threads. A processor calculates impact of hardware data prefetching for each thread of the one or more threads, based on the first set of monitored usage information. A processor adjusts prefetch settings for the one or more threads, based on the calculated impact of hardware data prefetching for each thread of the one or more threads.
