Virtual-Memory Assisted Buffer Management
Summary: vmcache maps page IDs via hardware virtual memory, preserving faulting/eviction control and avoiding mmap schemes. exmap scales Linux page-table manipulation to bypass OS bottlenecks, enabling portable, variable-sized pages and high-throughput buffer management on multi-core storage.
