Abstract

Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for allocating and managing resources for a deduplication table. In one implementation, an upper limit to an amount of memory allocated to a deduplication table is established. The deduplication table has one or more checksum entries, and each checksum entry is associates a checksum with unique data. A new checksum entry corresponding to new unique data is prevented from being added to the deduplication table where adding the new checksum entry will cause the deduplication table to exceed a size limit. The new unique data has a checksum that is different from the checksums in the one or more checksum entries in the deduplication table.
