External vs. internal fragmentation External fragmentation occurs when unused gaps arise between blocks of allocated memory. This situation can happen, for example, when an application allocates three ...

Memory efficiency: A measure of how effectively an algorithm utilises and manages memory resources, particularly critical in high-throughput video processing.

According to ATI, HyperMemory uses intelligent memory allocation algorithms to optimize the use of available local memory and ensure critical components are placed in fast local memory when required.
