Claim:
1. A method for managing data, the method comprising: determining that a cache access count for a given data block is greater than an average cache access count for a plurality of data blocks; receiving a list of active applications accessing the given data block with an anticipated access count for each active application contingent upon the cache access count being greater than the average cache access count; receiving a list of applications that are anticipated to access the given data block within a time window with an anticipated future access count for each anticipated application contingent upon the cache access count being greater than the average cache access count; determining that a block application access weight is greater than a block application access threshold contingent upon the cache access count being greater than the average cache access count; determining that a cache profile weight for the given data block is greater than zero contingent upon the block application access weight being greater than the block application access threshold; and sending the cache profile weight to a file system contingent upon the cache profile weight being greater than zero.
