Abstract RDMA reduces network latency by eliminating unnec-essary copies from network interface card to application buffers, but how to reduce memory registration cost is a challenge. Previous studies use pin-down cache and batched deregistration to address this issue, but only sim-ple LRU is used as a replacement algorithm to manage the cache space. In this paper, we propose an effective ...
