Title
Medium-Term Scheduler as a Solution for the Thrashing Effect
Abstract
We suggest a method for minimizing the paging on a system with a very heavy memory usage. Sometimes there are processes with active memory allocations that should be in the physical memory, but their total size exceeds the physical memory range. In such cases, the operating system starts swapping pages in and out of the memory on every context switch. We minimize this thrashing by splitting the pr...
