Abstract: Today's file systems are limited in speed and reliability by memory's vulnerability to operating system crashes. Because memory is viewed as unsafe, systems periodically write modified file data back to disk. These extra disk writes lower system performance and the delay period before data is safe lowers reliability. The goal of the Rio (RAM I/O) file cache is to make ordinary main memory safe for persistent storage by enabling memory to survive operating system crashes. Reliable main... (Update)
