Abstract
A storage command is received at a block level interface from a file system. The storage command is associated with a window of a virtual drive. One of a plurality of binary trees is selected based on the window being associated with the storage command, each of the binary trees being associated with a plurality of windows. If a data storage size of the storage command exceeds a threshold, a window identifier of the window is added to the selected binary tree to indicate the command will bypass a cache and send data of the storage command directly to main data storage.
