<p>A computing system is operated such that its file server is arranged not to block a client application and distinguishes between synchronous devices, which respond to requests immediately, and asynchronous devices, which do not. For asynchronous devices, it also distinguishes between synchronous operations, which complete immediately, and asynchronous operations, which take time to complete. The device drivers for the computing system only pass file server requests to separate drive threads when they involve asynchronous operations made on asynchronous devices.</p> |
