It certainly sounded like a college-class question.
I understand that entirely.

Basically, ALL filesystems which reside on disk are slow,
and all filesystems which reside on random-access
memory (even non-volatile NVRAM such as USB sticks)
are fast.
Well obviously if my hard-disk was slow enough to get what I wanted, I
wouldn't need to ask the question. So yes, I do have to write a
simulator and was looking whether someone has already implemented that.
That's called code reuse.

This is starting to sound like you're using the list
to do your try to get your college-level programming
projects done.
If you are so sure of yourself, you might want to check the email
address, and then try the corresponding web site. You would find that's
a commercial company doing open-source software. Hardly college-level.

Beside, and that you couldn't guess, I graduated about 11 years ago, so
that's a long time since I did assignments. When you don't have
information, you do not have to absolutely try and answer. Other people
I understand that entirely.
might have more useful information, which you might eventually learn
from as well.
I guess I could quote a URL for the netiquette as well (don't be
aggressive), but you might not read it.
