Hi everyone,

I am currently looking into the possibilities of creating a special 
file-system for use in a computer-forensics framework. One of the issues 
that this file-system should help to solve is the large amount of 
disk-cache misses that the non-standard FS access patterns of such a 
framework would induce. One thing worth considering in this context 
would be a 'smart'file-system that keeps track of expected disk-cache 
access patterns and throttles the addition of new data into the system 
by making either the write mode 'open' block or by making a write 
operation block until disk-cache expectations make it a good moment for 
allowing new data to be added again.

Is there a good/preferred way to implement such a strategy into a fuse 
based file-system?

T.I.A,

Rob J Meijer
