(Solved) : Certain File System Files Allocated Space Large Blocks 16 Kb Final Partial Block Allocated Q37291786 . . .
In a certain file system, files are allocated most of theirspace in large blocks (16 kB) but any final, partial block isallocated in “scraps” (1 kB each). Assume that 40% of the fileshave a size uniformly distributed between 1 B and 4 kB, 40% have asize uniformly distributed between 4kB and 16kB, and the rest ofthe files have sizes uniformly distributed between 16 kB and 1MB.
Compare the data transferrates of this system to one that uses only blocks of 8 kB each.Assume the system uses a disk that has mean seek time of 10 ms.,rotational speed of 9000 RPM, and 100 sectors of 512 bytes each pertrack
