We study wear-leveling techniques for cuckoo hashing, showing that it is possible to achieve a memory wear bound of \(loglog n+O(1)\) after the insertion of \(n\) items into a table of size \(Cn\) for a suitable constant \(C\) using cuckoo hashing. Moreover, we study our cuckoo hashing method empirically, showing that it significantly improves on the memory wear performance for classic cuckoo hashing and linear probing in practice.
