[Disksim-users] k-client problem

[Yinliang Yue]

I think you should emphasize on the "disk space management", not the
k-client problem.

In disksim, you can create a trace file, in which the time slots among
multiple I/O requests are small enough or approach to zero.

You may notice that disksim support the following case: the arrive time of
two or more I/O request can be equal to each other.

So I think generate the trace you needed and then try to propose a new
efficient disk space managenet approch to reduce the average response time
or improve the throughput under the k-client currency situation.

Best wishes!
