ABSTRACT:
A method is disclosed which may include providing a cache in a computing system having an initial group of cache objects, the cache object having an initial compression ratio and including stored data; decreasing an amount of data storage space in the cache occupied by at least one of the cache objects other than a given one of the cache objects; and increasing an amount of data storage space in the cache occupied by the given cache object.
