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.
If there's a particular "slow" filesystem you want to study, then just create and mount that kind of filesystem. Why resort to a simulation when you can use the real thing just as easily.
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.
It certainly sounded like a college-class question.
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.
