Original Abstract Submitted
methods, systems, and devices for compression-based address mapping management in a memory system are described. a memory system may reduce a quantity of times regions of an address mapping table are transferred between a non-volatile memory and a local memory of the memory system. the memory system may selectively retain regions of the address mapping table in local memory in-between checkpoint procedures. during a checkpoint procedure, the memory system may compress the regions of the address mapping table in the local memory and, if the regions are sufficiently compressible, may keep the regions in the local memory until the next checkpoint procedure.
