Abstract
Reducing access time for data in a file system when seek requests are received ahead of access requests. In one embodiment, an operating system providing access to the file system receives a seek request (from a user application) indicating an identifier of a file and a location within the file at which a data is sought to be accessed. In response, the operating system computes the offset of a disk block containing the location (thereby the data that is sought to be accessed). On receiving an access request (after the seek request from the same user application) indicating an operation to be performed on the data, the operating system executes the operation on the data using the pre-computed offset of the disk block. The computation of the disk block is performed before the access request is received thereby reducing the time required to process the access request.
