....I O accesses based on the file layout, the degree of parallelism and the level of data integrity required. Currently, the PFS supports six I O modes, M UNIX, M SYNC, M ASYNC, M RECORD, M GLOBAL, and M LOG. Benchmark results have shown that M ASYNC and M RECORD provide the high performance [ACR96, Bor96] The PFS uses a technique called Fast Path I O to avoid data caching and copying on large transfers to from disks [ACR96] The file system buffer cache on the Paragon OS is bypassed, as is the client side memory mapped file support. Instead, Fast Path I O reads data directly from the disks to ....
