Hello Nikhil, By user data you mean "Region values"?
1) The address of user-data (region values) are stored on heap. Regions Keys and addresses (for the values stored offheap) are stored on-heap. 2) "Fragment list" is an internal data-structure used to store and maintain off-heap memory allocations. You can find Off-heap functional spec @ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-7 Sai On Tue, Feb 16, 2016 at 4:15 PM, Nikhil Chandrappa <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I am trying out the new off heap storage feature of Geode, I went over the > Geode clubhouse recording on the off heap storage implementation. > > I have couple of questions regarding that, > > 1. where will the off-heap address of the user data is stored. does it > maintain any metadata? > > 2.
