Linux Kernel Hash Table Behavior: Analysis and Improvements
Abstract:
The Linux kernel stores high-usage data objects such as pages, buffers, and inodes in data structures known as hash tables. In this report we analyze existing static hash tables to study the benefits of dynamically sized hash tables. We find significant performance boosts with careful analysis and tuning of these critical kernel data structures.
