HAC is a novel technique for managing the direct the client cache in a distributed, persistent object storage system. In a companion paper, we showed that it outperforms other techniques across a wide range of cache sizes and workloads. This report describes HAC's solution to a specific problem: how to discard indirection table entries in an indirect pointer swizzling scheme.
