Abstract
Recently, decentralized file systems are widely used to overcome centralized file systems’ load asymmetry between nodes and the scalability problem. Due to the lack of a metadata server, decentralized systems require more RPC requests to control metadata processing between clients and servers, which adversely impacts the I/O performance and traffic imbalance by increasing RPC latency. In this paper, we propose an efficient I/O scheme to reduce the RPC overhead in decentralized file systems. Instead of sending a single RPC request at a time, we enqueued the RPCs in the global queue and merged them into larger RPC requests, thus avoiding excessive RPC latency overheads. The experimental results showed that our scheme improves write and read performance by up to 13% and 16%, respectively, compared with those of the original.
