Abstract

A system, computer-readable medium, and method of visualizing memory utilization by a computing device are provided. In the method, a user interface window is presented in a display. The user interface window includes a first indicator representing a first datum stored in a first memory and a second indicator representing a second datum stored in a second memory. A first access speed for accessing the first memory is faster than a second access speed for accessing the second memory. A determination is made that the second datum is not stored in the first memory, but is ready for access by the processor from the first memory. In response, an update to the user interface window is presented in the display including a line connecting a first location of the first indicator with a second location of the second indicator.
