 They include improving the device drivers for the disk
devices, data buffering in the Kernel and changing the organization of
the on-disk structures. The on-disk structures would probably end up
looking very much like the FFS, with its "cylinder group" approach to
managing file nodes and data blocks. These improvements would give
KSOS-32 almost the same speed as UNIX. The only differences would
be a small amount of overhead (<<5%) at file open or creation time.
