I have implemented a prototype log-structured file system called Sprite LFS; it outperforms current Unix file systems by an order of magnitude for small-file writes and matches or exceeds Unix performance for reads and large writes. Even when the overhead for cleaning is included, Sprite LFS can use 70% of the disk bandwidth for writing. Unix file systems typically can use only 5-10%.

This book contains comprehensive, up-to-date, and authoritative technical information on the internal structure of the FreeBSD open-source operating system. Coverage includes the capabilities of the system; how to effectively and efficiently interface to the system; how to maintain, tune, and configure the operating system; and how to extend and enhance the system. The authors provide a concise overview of FreeBSD's design and implementation. Then, while explaining key design decisions, they detail the concepts, data structures, and algorithms used in implementing the systems facilities. As a result, this book can be used as an operating systems textbook, a practical reference, or an in-depth study of a contemporary, portable, open-source operating system. -- Provided by publisher.

Empirical evidence in [ROSE90], [ROSE91], and [ROSE92] indicates that a log-structured file system provides superior write performance and equivalent read performance to traditional file systems. This thesis analyzes and evaluates the log-structured file system presented in [ROSE91], isolating some of the critical issues in its design. Additionally, a modified design addressing these issues is presented and evaluated. Log-structured file systems also offer the potential for superior integration of transaction processing into the system. Because log-structured file systems use logging techniques to store files, incorporating transaction mechanisms into the file system is a natural extension.
