Methods and systems therefrom are provided for task processing in a computing environment. The method includes identifying a program to be executed by a processor for performing at least one task and determining that a memory requirement for the program does not exceed a capacity of a cache memory for the processor to perform the task. The method also includes, in response to determining that the memory requirement for the program does not exceed the capacity of the cache memory, instructing the processor to enter into a slice mode from a current mode and execute the program in the slice mode to perform the task. In the method, the slice mode comprises copying the program from the backing store memory to the cache memory and executing the program to perform the at least one task by utilizing the program copied to cache memory.
