Abstract: Small file performance in most file systems is limited by
slowly improving disk access times, even though current
file systems improve on-disk locality by allocating
related data objects in the same general region.
The key insight for why current file systems perform
poorly is that locality is insufficient --- exploiting disk
bandwidth for small data objects requires that they be
placed adjacently. We describe C-FFS (Co-locating
Fast File System), which introduces two techniques,
embedded... (Update)
