Explain Belady's Anomaly?

Answer Posted / guest

It is also called FIFO anomaly. Usually, on increasing the
number of frames allocated to a process' virtual memory,
the process execution is faster, because fewer page faults
occur. Sometimes, the reverse happens, i.e., the execution
time increases even when more frames are allocated to the
process. This is Belady's Anomaly. This is true for certain
page reference patterns
