Demystifying and Improving Lazy Promotion in Cache Eviction
Summary: Production-trace evaluation of five lazy-promotion strategies introduces promotion efficiency, revealing Delay-LRU and FIFO-reinsertion as superior. D-FR and AGE cut LRU promotions 20–60% with comparable or lower miss ratios, and findings extend to ARC/2Q. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
