ABSTRACT:
Described herein is a computer program product comprising a computer useable medium having computer program logic recorded thereon for enabling a processor in a computer system to manage a plurality of data structures stored in a computer storage medium. The computer storage medium includes a primary storage medium and an overflow storage medium. The computer program logic enables the processor to receive a request to store a data object in a target data structure, and enables the processor to determine whether an overflow mode condition currently exists. If it is determined that an overflow mode condition does not currently exist, then the computer program product enables the processor to determine whether a combined size of all data structures stored in the primary storage medium plus a size of the data object is greater than a predetermined threshold. If it is determined that a combined size of all data structures stored in the primary storage medium plus a size of the data object is greater than a predetermined threshold, then the computer program product enables the processor to enter an overflow mode such that an overflow mode condition exists. Once in the overflow mode, the computer program product enables the processor to select one or more data structures currently stored in the primary storage medium, and enables the processor to move the selected data structures from the primary storage medium to the overflow storage medium.
