Zusammenfassung:Methods, devices, and systems for prefetching data. First data is loaded from a first memory location. The first data in cached in a cache memory. Other data is prefetched to the cache memory based on a compression of the first data and a compression of the other data. In some implementations, the compression of the first data and the compression of the other data are determined based on metadata associated with the first data and metadata associated with the other data. In some implementations, the other data is prefetched to the cache memory based on a total of a compressed size of the first data and a compressed size of the other data being less than a threshold size. In some implementations, the other data is not prefetched to the cache memory based on the other data being uncompressed.
