The disclosure provides a method of associating thread identifiers (IDs) to input/output (I/O) requests in a remote computing environment. The method generally includes receiving, by a mini-filter on a remote device that is remote from a client device, a request from an application on the remote device to access resources at the client device, determining, by the mini-filter, a thread identifier (ID) associated with the request, the thread ID corresponding to an application thread of the application that generated the request, determining, by the mini-filter, one or more parameters of the request, and transmitting, by the mini-filter, to a redirection server process on the remote device, a message comprising the thread ID and the one or more parameters of the request, wherein the thread ID and the one or more parameters of the request are added to a cache maintained by the redirection server process.

Input/output (I/O) performance in remote computing environments using a mini-filter driver

System and methods are provided for improved directory enumeration on shared client directories in virtual desktops. A merged I/O request containing multiple expected I/O requests for enumerating a directory can be produced on the virtual desktop. The merged I/O request can be conveyed to the client device and a merged I/O response containing multiple I/O responses to the expected I/O requests can be received from the client device. The received I/O responses can be stored in cache memory on the virtual desktop and used to respond to subsequent queries for enumerating the directory on the virtual desktop.

Merged input/output for accelerating directory listing phase in client drive redirection

A method of copying at least first and second files stored in a client computing device to a host server, includes the steps of: generating at the host server a first read I/O request for data of the first file based on responses to pre-read I/O requests for the first file, received from the client computing device; transmitting a merged I/O request that includes the first read I/O request for data of the first file and pre-read I/O requests for the second file from the host server to the client computing device; generating at the host server a second read I/O request for data of the second file based on responses to the pre-read I/O requests for the second file, received from the client computing device; and transmitting the second read I/O request for data of the second file from the host server to the client computing device.
