Summary:An aspect includes memory access optimization in a processor complex. A non-limiting example includes determining one or more offload criteria for offloading memory movement in the processor complex. A memory movement process parameter corresponding to the one or more offload criteria is identified. Movement of a block of memory from a first block location at a first host to a second block location at a second host is scheduled as the memory movement process performed by an offload engine based on determining that the memory movement process parameter exceeds at least one of the offload criteria. The block of memory is moved from the first block location at the first host to the second block location at the second host as the memory movement process performed by the first host based on determining that the memory movement process parameter does not exceed at least one of the offload criteria.
