Performance Analysis of Block Write Operation of File Systems on Linux Environment  

Choi, Jin-Oh (Department of Embedded Software, Busan University of Foreign Studies)
Abstract
Linux environment that is commonly used at embedded systems supports various file systems as Ext2, FAT, NTFS, etc. The file system that is equiped on the embedded system is mostly implemented on mini hard disk or flash memory. The types of the file system of the system make an effect on the performance of a application programs. The factors of file system performance on a same media are block read, block write and block free time. On these factors, block read and block free time are not so different according to the type of file systems. This paper evaluates the performance benchmark of file systems supported by linux about block allocation and write performance. The results obtained from various experiments shows the characteristics of each file system.
