Methods and modules relating to allocation of host machines

Abstract:

Methods, computer-readable media, and systems are included for generating information about latency ratings corresponding to a memory pool and a CPU pool. An example method includes for each CPU of the CPU pool, estimating a first latency rating for said each CPU towards the memory pool, and for each memory unit of the memory pool, estimating a second latency rating for said each memory unit towards the CPU pool. The CPUs are organized into a first plurality of groups of CPUs based on the estimated first latency rating, where each CPU of each group of the first plurality of groups has a first common latency rating towards the memory pool. The memory units are organized into a second plurality of groups of memory units based on the estimated second latency rating, where each memory unit of each group of the second plurality of groups has a second common latency rating towards the CPU pool.
