Abstract

The technique which stores cache data in EXT2 or UFS designed for general purpose is not suitable for satisfying the speed required for web cache due to the general purpose file system. This study shows that there is the better solution by optimizing the file system using the characteristics of web file. It is impossible that the suggested RawCFS changes the size of cached object and the access authentication, and this results from the existence of up-to-dated object in the original server. This file system is proved in the capability test that it is faster than the technique by 40% which stores in each file by object unit. This can be used in the design of high end web server such as shoppingmall or Internet Broadcasting station which should provide objects like image or HTML as well as cache server to the client for the fast service.
