摘要: Abstract : We analyzed the UNIX 4.2BSD file system by recording activity in trace files and writing programs to analyze traces. The analysis shows that average bandwidth needed per user is low (a few hundred bytes second). Most of accessed are short, open a short time, sequentially. new information deleted or overwritten within minutes its creation. wrote simulator uses traces predict performance caches for disk blocks. moderate-sized used reduce traffic about 50%, but larger (several megabytes) can achieve much greater reductions, eliminating 90% more all traffic. With those large caches, block sizes (16 kbytes more) result fewest accesses.
