Abstract

In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes inserting a set of accessed objects into a cache, where the set of accessed objects varies in size. An object includes a set of object components, and responsive to receiving a request to access the object, it is determined that the object does not fit into the cache given the set of accessed objects and a total size of the cache. A heuristic algorithm is applied, by a computer processor, to identify in the set of object components one or more object components for insertion into the cache. The heuristic algorithm considers at least a priority of the object compared to priorities of one or more objects in the set of accessed objects. The one or more object components are inserted into the cache.
