....will be treated as non sequential, with no read ahead. Variations on the stride pattern are common in engineering and out of core workloads, and optimizing them has been the subject of considerable research, although it is usually attacked at the application level or as a virtual memory issue [2, 17]. In the ordinary implementation, the nfsheur contains a single offset and sequentiality count for each file handle. In order to handle stride read patterns, we add the concept of cursors to the nfsheur. Each active file handle may have several cursors, and each cursor contains its own offset and ....

....assume an infrequently changing broadcast schedule, whereas storage aware caching must react to frequent changes in workload and device performance. Recently, researchers have studied allocation of pages between different classes in prefetching [9, 24, 35] compiler controlled memory management [14], and resizeable file buffer caches [22] In prefetching, page allocation occurs between applications [9] or hinted and unhinted I O references [24, 35] For compiler controlled memory management, the compiler provides application memory usage information to operating system global replacement ....

....(as in FFS s cylinder groups) are no longer operational. Data caching efforts have focused on aggressive write back and prefetching to hide lengthy disk access times. In particular, many schemes have been proposed for identifying access patterns [28] allowing application and compiler hinting [6, 36, 5] and even speculatively executing programs to get hints [10] There are also application interfaces, such as dynamic sets [51] and disk directed I O [27] that allow groups of requests to be specified collectively. Similarly, schemes like soft updates [17] and RIO [11] allow aggressive write back ....

.... work on scalar vector memory interference, the authors show that perturbations to a vector reference stream can reduce memory system efficiency by up to a factor of two [29] Memory Hogs: In their recent paper, Brown and Mowry show the effect of an out of core application on interactive jobs [13]. Therein, the response time of the interactive job is shown to be up to 40 times worse when competing with a memory intensive process for memory resources. CPU Hogs: Similarly, interference to CPU resources leads to unexpected slowdowns. From a different sorting study: The performance of ....
