ABSTRACT:
A graphics system utilizes virtual memory pages and has a partitioned graphics memory that includes memory elements. The system supports having an non-power of two number of active memory elements. Additionally, a partition swizzling operation is used to adjust the partition numbers associated with individual units of virtual memory allocation on particular virtual memory pages to achieve a selected partition interleaving pattern.
