Question: 30
(Choose 1 answer)
Analyze the significance of log-structured file systems in enhancing file-system performance, discussing their
mechanisms and impact on write operations and disk usage.
A. Log-structured file systems optimize disk usage but may suffer from higher write latencies due to their
write-in-large-unit approach.
B. Log-structured file systems minimize write latencies by writing data in large units and improve disk usage
through better block placement.
C. Log-structured file systems have no impact on write latencies and disk usage, as they primarily focus on
file backups.
D. Log-structured file systems slow down disk usage by writing data in small units and hinder write operations
due to excessive disk fragmentation.
