Concept for controlling a memory performance in a computer system

Abstract:

Examples relate to a processor apparatus, device, method and computer program, to a memory performance controller apparatus, device, method and computer program and to a memory controller apparatus, device, method and computer program. The processor apparatus comprises interface circuitry for communicating with other components of the computer system. The processing circuitry is configured to provide an interface for controlling a memory performance requirement of a data structure stored within a memory of the computer system. The memory performance requirement is a percentile-based memory performance requirement comprising at least a first memory performance requirement valid for a first portion of access operations and a second memory performance requirement valid for a second portion of access operations. The processing circuitry is configured to control a memory system of the computer system to provide the memory performance indicated by the memory performance requirement in response to an instruction obtained via the interface for controlling the memory performance requirement of the data structure.
