As a personal project on Minix, I want to measure the performance of part of the Minix operating system and to modify that part to produce a better performance. The section I think i should be modifiying is the block cache (buffer cache) which is cache.c in minix. What do I need to know and how can I modify it to achieve this?
Thanks
That's a fairly tall order. You'd need to know C, and quite a bit about Minix system internals....
Good luck!
I salute you for your *****ion, but question the logic in posting such a question here. Not a lot of kernel hackers at phpbuilder.com ....
