Abstract
Non-volatile RAM (NVRAM) provides many opportunities to improve the performance of computing devices. In this paper, we present an approach that reduces the user-perceived latency of browsers by using NVRAM. To this end, we first analyze the browser launch process, and then employ several techniques that improve the performance of each step by using NVRAM. Specially, we focus on minimizing the launch time of browser by 1) prefetching the block sequence required for browser launch, 2) caching the web resources in the fast NVRAM, and 3) reusing the displayed bitmap data in the frame buffer. Through implementation, we show that our scheme significantly reduces the launch time of browsers.
