Wide Finder bugs me... more than one thread doing disk reads is probably a Really Bad Idea
- wmf 19y agoThat must be some PC; the fastest 7200 RPM disk can transfer 100MB/s. There is an engineering tradeoff here; doing I/O in multiple threads introduces seeks, but it simplifies the code dramatically. Using one thread for I/O will introduce data copies and locking for the work queue.
- dfranke 19y agoIf all your drives support tagged queueing then it's probably okay.
