Hello!
Have You tried to use skiplists ?
In 93 I've coded a skiplist based directory access for Minix and it gave very
interesting performances.
Skiplists have a link-list like performance when linear scanned, and overall
good performance in insertion/seek/delete.
Skip list
Hi!
And no, I don't actually hink that sendfile() is all that hot. It was
_very_ easy to implement, and can be considered a 5-minute hack to give
a feature that fit very well in the MM architecture, and that the Apache
folks had already been using on other architectures.
The current

Hello!
To have O(1) you've to have the number of hash entries number of files and a
really good hasing function.
No, if you enlarge the hash table twice (and re-hash everything) every time the
table fills up, the load factor of the table keeps small and everything is O(1)

Since I had some trouble finding any porting info from 2.2 to 2.4, I
wrote up a small amount of research I did on porting FSDs in hope that
someone else might find it useful.. it can be found here:

I'd also be grateful for any help, re:

Dave - any ideas, shall we back it out and work on it for 2.2.20 ?
The one change which is probably causing this is non-critical,
so let me study things quickly tonight and if I come up with
nothing I'll show you what you can revert safely.
Later,

Hi,
Is there any chance that RAID volumes would support partitions like the

Yep.

You would need patches H,I,N,O,P,Q,R, and you should

You're right. However, for each hash table operation to be O(1) the size
of the hash table must be n.
If we are talking about average case complexity (which is the only possibility
with fixed hash function and arbitrary input keys), it suffices to have
