ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling data flow to a pair of storage devices includes receiving at least one new entry to store in a first storage device or a second storage device in the pair of storage devices and determining a number of entries made to the first and second storage devices out of the at least one new entry. The method also includes calculating a difference between available space in the first storage device and the second storage device, and calculating a number of credits used by the at least one new entry based on the numbers of entries to the first and second storage devices and on the difference in available space.
