Method, device, and computer program product for managing memories
Techniques for managing memory involve: determining a set of weights corresponding to a plurality of command queues in the memory, each weight indicating the number of commands allowed to be transmitted in a corresponding command queue; detecting whether a transmission delay occurs in the plurality of command queues; and adjusting the set of weights based on a result of the detection. Accordingly, transmission and processing efficiencies of commands in a command queue can be improved, and transmission bandwidth can be used more efficiently.
