Techniques for managing context information for a storage device while maintaining responsiveness

Disclosed are techniques for managing context information for data stored within a computing device. According to some embodiments, the method can include the steps of (1) loading, into a volatile memory of the computing device, the context information from a non-volatile memory of the computing device, where the context information is separated into a plurality of portions, and each portion of the plurality of portions is separated into a plurality of sub-portions, (2) writing transactions into a log stored within the non-volatile memory, and (3) each time a condition is satisfied: identifying a next sub-portion to be processed, where the next sub-portion is included in the plurality of sub-portions of a current portion being processed, identifying a portion of the context information that corresponds to the next sub-portion, converting the portion from a first format to a second format, and writing the portion into the non-volatile memory.
