I'm designing and implementing a Unix paging system using a
MC68020 and MC68851 PMMU. A high-end disk controller is also
being designed part of whose purpose is to provide a page cache
in the controller ram for pages which the os believes have been
swapped to disk.
I am looking for references to papers, books, etc. on paging
performance, particularly (but not exclusively) if they deal with
the performance of actual systems, preferably in a business
environment, and if they have disk controller, or other, boards
which are tailored to aid paging performance.
Any references, experiences with designing paging systems,
measuring paging performance, etc. will be most gratefully
appreciated.
Two references which I don't need are:
Virtual Memory Management by Richard Carr
Working Sets Past and Present by P.J. Denning
(Carr's book and Denning's article have over 100 references each.
I'm hoping for help in directing my efforts.)
Also, I've found chapters in operating system texts such as
Deitel, Shaw, Madnick and Donovan, Peterson and Silberschatz to
be too general for my purposes.
Thanks in advance.
