A multiple-file write scheme for improving write performance of small files in Fast File System

Fast File System (FFS) stores files to disk in separate disk writes, each of which incurs a disk positioning (seek + rotation) limiting the write performance for small files. We propose a new scheme called co-writing to accelerate small file writes in ...
