CHANGE LOG COMPRESSION

Abstract: various aspects of the present disclosure relate to enabling a memory system to support compressing entries of a change log and improving the efficiency of the memory system by enabling the memory system changes associated with the change log to occur concurrently. either a “staged” compression technique or a “direct” compression technique may be used to compress entries of the change log. in the case of a staged compression, the memory system may merge a new entry with a staged entry, may update the previously-staged entry, and may subsequently release the merged entry to the change log. in the case of a direct compression, the memory system may decide whether the backend entry can be directly merged with existing entries of the change log.
